So today I would like to illustrate a period when I had some medicine, and this medicine can cure my runny nose because I'm allergic to changing weather as well. I remember about three months ago, I went to the clinic doctor located near my house, so it's a few miles I can walk to. I took antihistamine medicine for curing my runny nose and also for my skin because sometimes the changing season can make me really annoyed with my skincare, and I mean my facial skin, which can make me really itchy during that specific time. Moreover, I also took some probiotics for my maintenance because I believe these kinds of healthy medicines can boost people's immune systems as much as possible. However, after I took this medicine, I felt much better overall. The runny nose subsided, and my skin irritation decreased significantly, allowing me to feel more comfortable and at ease.
