It is finally that time of the year where spring arrives the only downside is allergies. Those with seasonal allergies will usually start to see symptoms in early March which then can last until the end of May. If you are one of those people who suffer with seasonal allergies then it is important to start preparing for allergies season as soon as possible. The first type of pollen we typically start to see is tree pollen which starts in the early weeks of February. In the later part of the season we start to see grass pollen which combined with tree pollen usually means a miserable time for anyone who suffers from allergies.
Allergies typically occur when your immune system produces antibodies in reaction to being exposed to harmless allergens. The immune system mistakes those allergens as a dangerous substance which then causes your immune system to attempt to fight them off using immunoglobulin E. These produce histamine which is what can typically cause the allergic reaction and symptoms.
Reactions can vary from person to person but seasonal allergies are usually accompanied by sneezing, runny nose, itchy eyes, or headaches. Below are some tips to keep in mind to help you better prepare for allergy season.
