I have Persian for past 6 years. In the 1st 3 years i was ok with it…but recently i have become allergic. My eyes swell up and become and itchy and i get bad sneezing and sinus attacks. Please tell me why this happened suddenly. I can i co exist with my cat. I love my pet very much.
I have allergies to cats and own two Persians myself. The best thing you can do is get rid of the cat, but who are we kidding? I would never do that and doubt you would too. So realistically you need to get rid of the source of the allergy. More likely than not you are allergic to the protein in their saliva. Cats are constantly grooming themselves. The protein in their saliva gets attached to their skin/fur and then once dry becomes airborne. First thing to do is bathe your cats regularly. I have done it with both of my cats since they were kittens. If you have never bathed them it could be challenging. I highly recommend holding their two front paws together when dipping them into the water receptacle (sink or bathtub) to avoid getting scratched. Don’t let them move towards you because they will try to jump onto you to escape and will use their claws to hold on (through your skin!) Secondly you need to get rid of the environmental problems. Vacuum often (a couple times a week). Change your bedding frequently. I cover things that my cats sit on regularly with something (towel or sheet) that I can wash in the laundry. This helps to capture deposits of their hair and remove it from the environment. Then there are prescriptions you can take yourself. Allegra or other antihistamines, eyedrops (I have never used them but just heard about them myself), and also flushing out your sinuses with saline solution. Good luck to you!
I get little red bumps whenever I get licked by my puppy, it’s nothing serious though, just some itching so I don’t plan on getting rid of him. It would be nice if i could find a way for this not to happen though.
Wash the area the puppies have licked right after you’re done playing with them…it could be irritation from their saliva. Good luck! kjl

how to cure food allergy and and avoid skin rashes and skin swelling ??
You will have to see an allergist or dermatologist and get tested for these allergies. Then you can get a shot of steroids (prednisone) and hydroxeyzene (Atrax) which would work immediately. Then after the tests are verified you can be put on a more permanent medication like a hydrocortosone cream 2.5% and the Atrax or prednisone.(steroid)
I’m an avid hunter and have been one for many years, but recently anytime I touch a deer I shot, a short time after wards I get red itchy eyes, runny nose, a rash, and sometimes my hands are unbarebly itchy. Any cure?
Hmmm, are you sure it is the deer, or possibly something the deer are coming in contact with and therefore you are being affected by it??? For instance, are you allergic to a certain weed, tree or grass and the pollen etc is picked up on the deer’s hair, then when you touch the deer, you are then affected. Zantac can now be bought at the store. Most people think it is only for stomach problems. It is what is called an H2 antagonist which means if you take it before you go hunting, it may decreas your chances of having these allergic episodes. Zantac over the counter) at the store comes in 75 mg, but you can take two tablets (150 mg), which is the normal dosage given in most nursing homes and hospitals. You could also try some claritin, or take them together.
Allergy is real bad in California now. Anyone have any idea which is the best medicine that can help?
