Hello DoctorI have been diagnosed with Rhinites , i have sinus for past 15 years and got operated in year 2001. I had allergy in past with Pollens etc. Doctor has written me Injection (Kenacort 40 mg+ Penidore 24) plus T Febrex plus and spray Avamys. Medicines are ok but I am not able to understand shall i take this injection as i read on net that its effect is not long lasting and is very painful as well. Hence confused shall i take medicines only? I am having watery eyes also for past 20 days.
Apparently you are having severe allergic rhinitis. The Endure 24 is a long acting penicillin which is effective for up to 3 weeks, the Escort will also be effective for about 4-5 days. The endure injection is painful, your doctor may be trying to treat a bacterial infection like strep, a single doe of this injection will be effective in such cases. The addition of Montelukast, a leukotriene inhibitor will help deal with your allergy. The decision of whether to take the injection or not lies with you and your doctor, it would be unfair for me to comment on this issue without examining you.
