Hay Fever Symptoms And Treatment

Hay fever or allergic rhinitis is a common allergic response to
specific substances in your environment. Hay fever is one of the
most common allergic conditions in the United States.



Seasonal hay fever is triggered by tree pollen, grasses or weeds
and other plants. Year-round symptoms can occur if you have
indoor allergy to dust mites, cockroaches, mold or pet dander.

Mild hay fever symptoms can be managed effectively with
over-the-counter medications. Year-round symptoms or severe
seasonal hay fever symptoms may require an allergy specialist
for appropriate evaluation and treatment. My year-round allergy
symptoms are managed effectively by an internist. An internist
is a physician who specializes in adult diseases.

Without proper treatment of hay fever symptoms there can be an
increase of more allergic conditions such as asthma or eczema.
Uncontrolled hay fever symptoms will impair the quality of your
everyday life.

Hay fever symptoms include:

• Runny nose
• Watery nose
• Congestion
• Frequent sneezing
• Itchy eyes, nose, roof of mouth or throat
• Swollen, blue-colored skin under eyes
• Postnasal drip
• Cough
• Sleeplessness
• Fatigue
• Irritability
• Facial pressure and pain

Hay fever symptoms are similar to the symptoms of a common cold,
however, there are differences. Hay fever does not mean you are
allergic to hay and is not triggered by hay. It does not cause a
fever. The probable cause is an allergic reaction to pollen or
mold. Heredity plays a role in determining who becomes allergic
including hay fever. If allergies or asthma runs in your family,
you may be more likely to develop hay fever.

You are most likely to develop hay fever during childhood or
early adulthood, but it can begin at any age. As you get older,
symptoms may worsen or improve. I have noticed my hay fever
seems to be diminishing; however, this could also be due to
better allergy medication.

Treatment for hay fever symptoms:

Your doctor will identify what allergy triggers your symptoms
and then develop a plan to avoid and/or cope with those
substances. Review the following treatment options:

• Nasal corticosteroids sprays

• Antihistamines relieve itching, sneezing and runny nose.
Common antihistamines include Benadryl, Chlor-Trimeton, Tavist,
Claritin

• Decongestants are often used in combination with
antihistamines and include Sudafed, Actifed

• Cromolyn sodium helps relieve hay fever symptoms by preventing
the release of histamine.

• Leukotriene modifier: A prescription tablet taken to block the
action of leukotrienes

• Nasal atropine helps relieve a severe runny nose

It is important to talk to your doctor before taking any
over-the-counter medications for hay fever especially if you
have a chronic health condition that requires you to take other
prescription drugs. You will need to know whether or not there
could be a drug interaction or other adverse effect.


If medications do not relieve your hay fever symptoms, your
doctor may recommend allergy shot therapy. The goal of
immunotherapy or desensitization therapy is to desensitize you
to specific allergens, reduce your signs and symptoms, and
decrease your need for medications. Allergy shots are usually
given over a period of three to five years to reach this goal.
