Three treatments

DEAR DR GOTT - Our son. 13. is
constantly blowing his nose, and his
voice gets funny from drainage in his
throat The ENT doctor did cryosur-
gery on him a year ago. but that didn't
help The allergist just says he's aller-
gic to dust and mold Could something
be done for the boy9
DEAR HEADER Your son
seems to be showing the classical
signs of inhalation allergies If. as the
allergist suggests, he is sensitive to
dust and molds, desensitization shots
may help
With any allergy, there are three
basic treatments avoidance of the
substance, use of medicines to control
symptoms and administration of in-
jections to reduce the severity of

Dust and mold are so prevalent in
our environment that avoidance is
virtually impossible, antihistamines
do reduce nasal congestion and mucus
production However, the only suit-

allergies is probably a program of
regular injections Ask the allergist

DEAR DR GOTT - I breast-fed
my child until he was 10 months old
Now my breasts are soft What can I
do to firm them up9
DEAR READER When breasts
are producing milk, they enlarge and
become firm After a woman stops
nursing her child, the milk glands
shrink and the breasts become small-
er (and softer) I am not aware of any
natural method to enable you to re-
gain the characteristics of lactating
breasts However, synthetic methods
such as plastic surgery — are
worth looking into if the condition of
your breasts really bothers you
DEAR DR GOTT I ve read that
a person living next to a power plant
might have his heart rhythm upset by
all that electricity Is this true9
DEAR READER - Its false The
heart is not affected by external elec-
tric or magnetic fields Therefore, liv-
ing near power plants or transmission
lines is not harmful — although nucle-
ar power plants might cause concern
Second, artificial pacemakers are
definitely affected by electromagnet-
ic fields, since pacemakers dep .nd on
a steady, battery powered electrical
impulse This is why patients with im-
planted pacemakers must avoid such
microwave sources as broadcast or
radar transmitters, security devices
or in some cases — microwave
appliances
DEAR DK GOTT What can you
tell me about pressure hives9
[HEAR READER Pressure hives
are called cholinergic urticaria
These itchy, raised skin eruptions are
caused by dilatation of small blood
vessels (capillaries) The reaction is
the result of histamines that are re-
leased when pressure is applied to the
skins of sensitive individuals Urticar-
ia also can be caused by stress, aller-
gies or exposure to cold (or heat). Peo-
ple with hives often can control the
troublesome breaking out by avoiding
the offending factors or by using
antihistamines
