salicylate allergies, any one anything about this?
For years I have had horrible itching skin problems. Over the years I have developed excessive sneezing and runny nose. I figured out not to long ago that some of it was due to laundry detergent. I found one day that the smell made me sneeze like crazy day and night. Shampoos,soaps,and perfumes have been culprits too, almost any smell when it is acting up. I guess over the years I could not pin point anything. I have had allergy testing that for things that people are most allergic to and nothing. It is hard to do chemical testing. This has crept up on me over the years, now I never free from the sneezing and runny nose. I have had 2 sinus surgeries in the last 2 years. Benadryl has been my savior over the years, But only at night it would make me sleep thru most of night until I wake up sneezing and my nose running like a faucet,not mention the terrible burning. Being at work is terrible because of all of the cleaning agents and people smells. Today is just crazy, the carpets were cleaned this morning and I came in just after they were done. My nose and eyes are running and the sneezing is uncontrollable, my lips and mouth are so dry from breathing thru my mouth. When I leave the room it calms down, I am hopping that when I get outside I have some relief, but damage will have been done for today and I will returning to this tomorrow.
After years of searching salicylate allergies has popped up, it could also be salicylic among other names.

You could also have an allergy to Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). It's in a lot of skin care, laundry, etc. items.
