Can getting your nose cauterized prevent hayfever?
I have had hayfever since I don’t know when and surprise surprise it’s started again! I’m thinking of going down the drastic route of getting my nose cauterzed. Can anyone tell me if this would help please. Also can you recommend anything else i can take other than antihistamines.
Cauterizing wouldn’t help, I wouldn’t think because, once the allergens of the ragweed are inhaled into your lungs, they get into your system and that is when your body reacts and you get hayfever. I think you’re stuck with antihistimines. Sorry. I think cauterizing would hurt really bad too. Take care.
Cauterizing is only for persistent nosebleeds. It will not help hayfever at all. Allergy desensitation shots will get rid of your hayfever. You would need to go to an allergist, get tested, and start on the shots. You would go to the allergist once per week for several years. It really does work. I had a series of shots lasting nine years. However, it may take a year or two before you notice an improvement.
