[|Human|] Hello Doctor,My wife has allergy symptoms itch eyes stuffy nose during pollen season. We live in NY and are thinking of moving to Charleston, SC to be near the beach. Would that be a better climate for her than NY? when we go on vacation to a beach area the ocean salt water seems to cleans her so she breathes great.
[|AI|]  Thank you for your question, Symptoms explained by your wife are due to allergy. It is called allergic rhinitis. Allergy may be due to different causes like exposure to dust, pollen, cold weather, exercise, specific foods etc. Seasonal allergy is due to exposure to specific type of pollen in specific season. Changing the location will definitely helpful by avoiding exposure to that particular pollen. It is no way related to beach or salt water that can reduce the symptoms. Just changing the location is great enough. For symptomatic relief, she can try Cetirizine tablets twice daily for 10 days.
