Seasonal Allergies - Overview

Seasonal allergies, sometimes known as allergic rhinitis (seasonal) and hay fever, consists of an allergic response to environmental stimuli such as pollen at certain times of the year. People in need of prescription medications for seasonal allergies can connect with a licensed medical provider through Push Health who can prescribe any necessary prescriptions when appropriate to do so.

Seasonal Allergies - Symptoms and Signs

Seasonal allergies can present with a variety of different signs and symptoms. Classic symptoms of seasonal allergies include itchy and watery eyes, runny nose / rhinitis, sneezing, and trouble concentrating. Often, people have a skin rash and itching in the elbows or knees. On examination, people with seasonal allergies often have swollen eyelids, inflammation inside the nose and ear redness. Seasonal allergies are sometimes diagnosed using allergy lab tests or patch testing.

Seasonal Allergies Treatments

While some types of seasonal allergies can be treated with lifestyle modifications, may forms of seasonal allergies require medication due to severity. Some medications are available over-the-counter while other medications require a prescription. Here are some examples of seasonal allergy medications that may be prescribed by a medical provider for seasonal allergy relief:

Avoiding things in the environment when possible can also help reduce the burden of seasonal allergies. Using an air purifier at home sometimes clear the air. Other experts recommend use of a nasal rinsing device such as a neti pot or trying butterbur, honey or probiotics.

Seasonal Allergies vs. Cold

What is the difference when comparing seasonal allergies versus a cold? Seasonal allergies are symptoms caused by the immune system being activated due to being triggered by non-infectious external stimuli such as pollen. A cold, on the other hand, is a viral infection that causes the immune system to be active so that it can fight off the virus. While symptoms of seasonal allergies can be quite similar to symptoms of a cold, the cause of why the immune system is being activated is different.
