Sneezing

[ruthay321]

My 15 year old son keeps sneezing. is there anything that could explain it? He refuses to blow his nose cos he says he enjoys sneezing. But it is really annoying for the rest of the family.

Thanks for any advice.

It's funny but I hate sneezing and I get very irritated at other people doing it so your son would drive me mad. Does he have any other symptoms (itchy eyes or ears, tickly throat?) Could it be hay fever? He may have allergic rhinitis and be sensitive to dust, household products, deodorants etc. It could be worth trying a nasal spray like Beconase or something.

ruthay - I am wondering whether hay fever season has started. I am sneezing first thing & have a runny nose, it's not a cold. Try your son on some of the hay fever tablets!
