Yearly ragweed allergies just hit me these last couple days. It flares up pretty wickedly here in southern Oklahoma. Thanks for the video.

Hi doc! I do realize this is off topic, but your video about septoplasty and turbinate reduction seems to have comments disabled. I am guessing that is because of people calling out about ENS. I have had this operation and my life has been destroyed because I no longer feel air inside my nose and thus, my sleep is ruined. I am only 2 months post op so I know I may adapt/heal, but this risk was never told to me by a doctor. I do realize this is a big ask, but could you make a video about ENS? It deserves more recognition and people suffering from it are often gaslighted into thinking it is all in their head. I hope this comment reaches you and maybe results in you making a video/short/post about this. I would like to mention that I harbor no hate towards ENTs, I just really wish this risk was more disclosed.

I realized I was allergic to ragweed when I experimented with its cousin, goldenrod. I rubbed goldenrod on my arm before entering a museum in Nebraska. I walked out with a huge welt on my arm.

On the last 2 years I had a severe allergy of ragweed when I touched them, i suddenly collapsed causes of short breath, difficulty breathing, rashes in my chest, i had an asthma attack, i feel like someone is choking me, and also had a heart attack, and those young doctors didn’t realize that i have a ragweed allergies even if they test my blood but they still can’t figure out, until last year happened again, and i had asthma attack or allergy attack again until i really really realized that i have a ragweed allergy 😢 what should i do to stop them😭🙏 is there home remedies for ragweed allergy or pollen allergies?
