Most Common Types of Allergens in Sanford and Their Symptoms

• Grass/Tree pollen: also known as Hay Fever, allergies to pollen are very common. This is what we think of when we think of "seasonal allergies" -- runny nose, stuffy sinuses, watery eyes, sneezing, and other cold-like symptoms.
• Dust mites: dust mite allergy symptoms are the same as pollen allergies, but in addition, the patient may experience asthmatic symptoms such as wheezing or difficulty breathing.
• Mold: symptoms include dry skin, watery eyes, itchy nose and throat, sneezing, and stuffy nose.
• Latex: those who are allergic to latex will experience symptoms in line with skin irritation such as itchiness, red skin, hives/rashes, coughing, wheezing, itchy/watery eyes, and sneezing.
• Food allergies: fool allergy symptoms vary drastically depending on the food and the allergy severity. Most common food allergies include nuts, shellfish, milk, and eggs. Symptoms range from hives and eczema to swelling of facial features to vomiting and abdominal pain. If you're experiencing a serious allergic reaction to food such as anaphylaxis, seek immediate medical attention from an emergency room.
• Animal dander: furry animals such as cats and dogs are also a common cause of allergies, most often triggering similar symptoms to pollen allergies.
