What causes frequent, repeated sneezing?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I am 19. I have suddenly started sneezing a lot throughout the day, and at one time, I may have sneezed 10 to 11 times. I have never had such a problem before, but in the last year, I have developed it, and it is becoming very irritating. Please help.

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The main cause behind repetitive sneezing is an allergy. There can be many causes behind allergies, like allergies due to dust or problems related to your nose, such as polyps, turbinate hypertrophy, or any other. However, it is completely treatable. So, I advise you to visit a nearby ENT (ear, nose, throat) specialist at least once so that he can examine you properly and guide you in addressing your problem. Once you know the reason, take treatment accordingly rather than randomly.

I hope this helps.

Please revert so I can assist you further.

Thank you.
