For example, sinus congestion and symptoms of an allergy to pollen can be treated with nasal irrigation. Visit your doctor if you have allergies. Your doctor can recommend how best to manage your allergies. Furthermore, it is important to see your doctor because allergies may increase your risk of certain other medical problems, which include:
