Allergies

Pollen are the very small reproductive cells found in trees, weeds, plants and grasses. Most trees release their pollen in the early spring. Grasses release pollen in the late spring and early summer. Ragweed releases pollen in the late summer and early fall.

 

As global temperatures rise and weather patterns shift, allergens is becoming increasingly significant. Seasonal allergic rhinitis known as hay fever is caused by pollen carried in the air during different times of the year in different parts of the world. If you are allergic to pollen, this allergen triggers symptoms such as sneezing, stuffiness, a runny nose and itchiness in your nose, the roof of your mouth, throat, eyes or ears.
