The Truth About Seasonal Allergy Symptoms
“What is your favorite season?” this is a common question that people ask. However, for people with seasonal allergy symptoms, there is no favorite season. Allergy symptoms can occur in any season but usually occur during the season of spring and fall when flowers and plants are growing or dying off. Pollens are small, round shaped powdery grains released from flowering plants, which are moved through the wind or carried by insects. These symptoms can be great nuisance to people, as it impacts the way a person live causing lower productivity.
Seasonal allergy symptoms include runny nose, teary eyes, nasal congestion, and difficulty of breathing. All of these nasal symptoms are normal response of the nose tissue reacting to the seasonal allergens. People with post nasal drip may further experience sore throat, while those with congestion may experience a headache. Sufferers from these symptoms will have itchy, water, and red eyes. Frequent itching can lead to bacterial infection on the eyes leading to sore eyes. Using eye drops to reduce redness and itchiness are recommended. In addition, cough, shortness of breath, and wheezing are other seasonal allergy symptoms. These symptoms are common in patient with bronchial asthma, although this can also occur to people who do not have asthma. Nebulizers with bronco-dilators and anti-inflammatory drugs are used to treat aero-symptoms like this. It opens the air pipes and reduces swelling to make breathing easier.
Although the above mentioned are the common seasonal allergy symptoms, many people complain about fatigue and body malaise. Experts say, it is just a response by the body after working hard to fight allergens. Other complains being reported are headaches and feeling foggy or not able to think clearly. Insomnia is also a reported case as these sufferers are unable to sleep because of the symptoms. Sometimes common colds are mistaken as seasonal allergy symptoms as both have similar symptoms; the difference is length of time. Common colds usually disappear after ten days. Management of these symptoms includes medications that can be bought readily over-the-counter; however, it is still better to consult a physician before taking any medicines.
