Suffering from excessive sneezing, gastrointestinal problems. Related symptoms?
Patient: Bizarrely, I seem to be suffering from sneezing (no real congestion, just a lot of sneezing) and gastrointestinal upset concurrently. I would have thought the two systems affected by these things were completely discrete, but as I m not a physician, what do I know? I m not seriously ill, just feeling a bit off, and rather confused. Have you an opinion on this? Doctor: Hello, Thanks for your post. Sneezing and gastrointestinal upset can be due to Allergies or Viral infections. Sneezing indicates something irritating upper airway passage and body wants to get rid of it by sneezing force. Some times Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease can also irritate upper airway passage causing sore throat or sneezing. You should take plenty of water. You may take over the counter ant allergic drugs. Sort out what type of GIT upset you are having? if symptoms persists or worsen then visit your doctor. Hope it helps. Take care!
