Spring Allergies: Recognizing Symptoms and Finding Relief

Spring in Parsippany not only promises warmer days and beautiful blooms but also the onset of allergy season, a challenging time for many with sensitivities to pollen.

At AFC Parsippany, we are ready to support you in managing spring allergies effectively so you can make the most of the season.

What Triggers Spring Allergies?

In our area, pollen from trees, grass, and weeds is the major cause of spring allergies. These allergens are most prevalent from March through May and can significantly affect daily life for those with allergies.

It's important to remember that it’s possible to develop allergies at any age, so even if you haven’t had symptoms in the past, stay vigilant for signs of allergies.

Identifying Spring Allergy Symptoms

Common spring allergy symptoms include:

  • Nasal congestion
  • Runny nose
  • Sneezing
  • Itchy nose, throat, or eyes
  • Watery eyes
  • Sinus pressure
  • Sore throat
  • Headache
  • Fatigue

Many of these symptoms are common to other medical conditions, so correctly diagnosing the cause of your discomfort is imporant. Our team at AFC Parsippany is skilled in diagnosing these symptoms and determining whether they are due to allergies.

Tips for Reducing Pollen Exposure

To minimize your contact with pollen:

  • Try to stay indoors during early morning hours when pollen counts are at their peak.
  • Avoid outdoor activities on windy days or following days with high pollen counts.
  • Change and wash clothes after outdoor exposure to remove pollen.
  • Keep windows and doors closed during high pollen seasons and use HEPA filters to clean indoor air.
  • Stay informed about local pollen levels to plan outdoor activities for times when pollen is lower.
