Seasonal allergy — also called allergic rhinitis or hay fever — is one of the most common allergic conditions. It happens when your immune system overreacts to airborne particles like pollen, dust or mould.
Common Symptoms
- Repeated sneezing
- Runny or blocked nose
- Itchy nose, eyes, throat or ears
- Watery or red eyes
- Post-nasal drip and a reduced sense of smell
Common Triggers
- Tree, grass and weed pollen
- House dust mites
- Mould spores, especially in humid weather
- Pet dander
- Air pollution, which worsens symptoms
How We Diagnose It
A detailed history helps identify likely triggers. Skin prick testing or specific blood tests, including component-resolved diagnostics, can confirm exactly what you're allergic to — so treatment is targeted, not guesswork.
How It's Treated
- Allergen avoidance and simple home measures
- Antihistamines and intranasal steroid sprays
- Saline nasal rinses
- Allergen immunotherapy for long-term relief in suitable patients
If seasonal symptoms keep returning or disturb your sleep and daily life, an allergy evaluation can pinpoint the cause and bring lasting relief.
