Seasonal allergies are your body's way of showing that it detects foreign particles.
Typical allergens are pollens released into the air from grasses, trees and weeds.
This explains why allergies get worse when the pollen count is up - usually in the spring through the fall months. Some symptoms of allergies include sneezing, runny nose, itchy, watery eyes and itchy throat. These symptoms are a result of histamine that is naturally released by our bodies in an effort to counter-attack the effects of pollen. Antihistamine medication blocks histamine to relieve many of the allergy symptoms described above. Consult with your healthcare provider to determine which is right for you.
