It’s that time of year again. Your allergies are flaring and you feel miserable. You are not alone. Allergies effect between 10-30% of adults and up to 40% of children.
Seasonal allergies are caused by airborne pollen and mold spores. Trees, grasses and weeds have light, dry pollens that are carried by the wind. These pollens are so tiny, usually less than the width of a human hair, that they can easily touch your nose and eyes. If you are allergic, you may react to these environmental triggers. During this time, your nose may become stuffy, sneezy, or runny. Your eyes may itch or water.
Fortunately, there is allergy relief for you. The first step is to identify your allergen profile. From this, we create an individual treatment plan for you. Tips for reducing exposure are discussed in detail with you and educational materials are provided for home reference. Medications options are reviewed. Allergy injections may be considered if you are interested in long lasting relief to develop a tolerance to your airborne triggers and reduce your long term medication use and side effects.
Don’t suffer through another allergy season. Let us work together so you can finally enjoy the outdoors.
