Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
It does sound like cold allergy. But I would want to know what medicines you have tried already before giving my opinion.
Regards.

Recurrent cold can be a sign of a chronic sinusitis problem, as sometimes the sinuses get blocked due to repeated infections, and the only symptom is post nasal drip as well as recurrent cold.
I will advise you a course of Tab. Montelukast-Levocetirizine 10 mg, once daily for a period of one week, and if it still does not resolve, you should get a CBC, ESR and CT SCAN of the para nasal sinuses and follow-up with me,
Regards.

Unfortunately, allergies can be avoided only if if do not expose yourself to the environmental triggers like cold or dust.
Kindly try the course and let me know as it will help desensitise you to the allergens.
