I'm sneezing most of the time although it's not the flu because I have no pain in the pharynx or a headache. I tried medicines like panadol and sinecod but no result.

Sneezing without any other symptom of viral or bacterial infection especially at this time of year may be of an allergic inflammation of the nasal airways (allergic rhinitis).
Allergic rhinitis triggered by the pollens of specific seasonal plants is commonly known as "hay fever", because it is most prevalent during haying season. However, it is possible to suffer from allergic rhinitis throughout the year. The characteristic symptoms of allergic rhinitis are: rhinorrhea (excess nasal secretion), itching, and nasal congestion and obstruction.
Allergy testing may reveal the specific allergens to which an individual is sensitive. Skin testing is the most common method of allergy testing
The goal of rhinitis treatment is to prevent or reduce the symptoms caused by the inflammation of affected tissues.
The most effective treatments are:
- Avoiding the allergen
-Intranasal corticosteroids are the preferred treatment if medications are required
-Antihistamine drugs can be taken orally or nasally to control symptoms such as sneezing, rhinorrhea, itching, and conjunctivitis.

You are complaining of what we call ''allergic rhinitis''. You need to do an allergy skin test in order to know the exact cause or causes of your disease and follow accordingly an immunotherapy (vaccination) program. Meanwhile, you can take an antihistamine and/or intranasal corticosteroids along with allergen avoidance to relieve your symptoms.
