Hi,
Mine was the opposite, among other things, I am allergic to cold. Like the cold we lived in, in Alaska. Had to literally move down and out of cold weather. Have pages of chemical allergies, but seasonal (pollen etc) ones too. It's not just chronic sinusitis, it's ear infections and a week ago, cellulitis of my left eye socket that began to spread to my right one. I do have good Opthamologists now for that. Other health conditions complicate some of this stuff. CT says I have a turbinate that needs trimming. I didn't even know I had one! You have some tactics I've never even thought to try before. Freezing your pillow cases? And why not allergy covers for your pillow cases and mattress? I thought that was the point of them. The move hit us hard, so right now I live in an "efficiency" apt, which means (if that's a new word for you, it was for me) the bedroom and living room are all one room. My biggest problem has been getting this areas doctors to even do antibiotics. I've ended up with a neuralgia, a new one, in my ear becauses of it. I already have some in my walking parts.

@thenazareneshul-

Regarding the part where you mentioned your turbinate.

I recommend you educate yourself on this.

Every person has 6 turbinates. 3 on each side of the lateral wall of the nose. They are very important structures of the nasal cavity. They provide moisture, humidification, and movement of air, dust and particles through the nose.

Before you have an ENT say they want to do a little trimming I would really understand what these organ structures are and how the ENT would be “trimming” this tissue/bone.
