Start learning about allergies here to help you understand your triggers and symptoms What are allergies? An ‘allergy’ is a sensitivity of your immune system to something that is ordinarily harmless. When your body tries to get rid of the ‘allergen’ (foreign substance), you experience symptoms like sneezing, itchy, watery eyes, and a runny, stuffy nose. Typical allergens can come from pet dander, pollen, dust mites, and mold. Outdoor: Seasonal Allergies Seasonal allergies describe allergies that change with the seasons due to pollen from plants. These allergens can be difficult to manage because it seems like they’re everywhere and they’re difficult to avoid. For people with seasonal allergies, symptoms come and go with the pollination seasons of certain trees, grasses or weeds. Pollen levels from these plants can vary day to day, depending upon several factors, including the weather. Depending on individual sensitivity, high pollen levels can, in turn, affect the severity of symptoms. Indoor: Year-Round Allergies Indoor allergies can occur any time of the year and are caused by substances like dust mites, mold spores, or pet dander. These allergens can be difficult to manage, especially since they tend to exist in our homes year-round. Since you’re often indoors during winter, household allergens like molds, dust mites, and pet dander can be troublesome. A common trigger for indoor allergies, dust mites can be found in the dust particles that collect naturally around the house. While dust mites are found throughout homes, they are more prevalent in humid areas of the house. These microscopic creatures live off our dead skin cells, hiding in the fibers of pillows, mattresses, blankets, and carpets. Dust Allergy Seasons Dust mites have a higher occurrence during humid climates. Dust Allergy Symptoms Some common symptoms of a dust allergy may include sneezing, itchy watery eyes, runny nose, and nasal congestion. Allergy testing by an allergist may verify whether you’re reacting to dust mites or have an allergy to another substance, such as pollen, pet dander, or mold. SMART TIPS FOR DUST ALLERGY SUFFERERS While dust mites are hard to get rid of, there are a number of things you can do to help manage your exposure to these allergens. NEW ROUTINE – Help reduce your exposure to dust allergens by wearing a dust mask and gloves, dusting with a damp sponge or mop, and using a vacuum with a HEPA filter or double bag. CHECK THE LABEL – Choose pillows, mattresses and furniture labeled "hypoallergenic." COVER UP – Use
