[|Human|] my 3 year old has had cattarh for over 3 mths. he has been taking an anti histimine 5ml solution once day for a wk from his gp. There has been no improvement. He is very tired and irritable. Tonight he cried for a while with earache, but calpol and some warm olive oil in his ear improved the pain.
[|AI|]  IIN my opinion your child seems to be suffering from allergic rhinitis. This is based on the description you have provided. I would suggest going for serum immunoassay for IGE to allergens, Absolute eosinophil counts and a nasal smear examination for eosinophils and neutrophils to confirm the diagnosis. Try to find out and avoid allergens responsible. If he is not responding to antihistamines, try intranasal inhaled steroids or elastin nasal spray. They might be helpful.
