Understanding Summer Allergies: Causes, Symptoms & More

When you think you've had enough of spring allergies, summer allergies appear and cause much more discomfort. Summer allergies often start in June and last until September, with June and July being the worst months for symptoms. Depending on where you live, the timing may change because the allergens that cause your summer allergy symptoms are influenced by the climate. Continue reading to find out what might be triggering your summer allergies and how to effectively manage them.

What are the common outdoor sources that triggers summer allergies?

Tree pollens

Tree pollens develop in cool nights and warm days. The amount of tree pollen may be particularly high during the summer depending on your location and the kinds and quantity of trees nearby.

Mold

Outdoor moulds can also trigger summer allergies. The concentration of mould might change with the weather because it is weather-sensitive. While certain mould spores flourish in high humidity conditions, such as fog or dew, others spread more faster in dry, windy conditions.

Mugwort

In the late summer and early fall, this perennial plant is one of the more frequent allergens. People who are allergic to pollen may get an allergic reaction from the proteins in Mugwort.

Some people are sensitive to foods that contain proteins that are comparable to those found in common allergens, such as grasses and weeds, in addition to pollens. When you consume a raw summer fruit or vegetable, you may have

short-term symptoms of tingling lips, mouth swelling, or a scratchy throat. This is referred to as pollen food allergy syndrome or oral allergy syndrome.

Understand the symptoms

 

Here are the common symptoms:

· Red, itchy, watery eyes

· Sneezing

· Congestion

· Itchy nose

Visit the best ENT specialist in Dubai if you experience any symptoms.

The amount of pollen a plant diffuses into the air, the length of your exposure, and whether the pollen is more or less likely to trigger an allergic reaction all have an impact on how severe an allergic reaction to pollen is. You can experience more severe allergy symptoms if you have several allergens or pollen allergies.

The pollens and other allergens that are typical in your region will also influence the severity of your allergic symptoms. Pollen production by plants varies according on climatic factors including temperature and precipitation. Additionally, although allergy seasons are typically predictable, unanticipated weather changes might extend or shorten the typical pollen season, which also affects symptoms.

How can you prevent summer allergies?

It's better to minimise your exposure to allergies. As a result of increased exposure, summer allergy symptoms become "dose-dependent," meaning they get worse.

Invest in dust mite coverings for your mattress and pillows if indoor allergens are causing summer allergies. These covers will act as a barrier between you and the mites, reducing your exposure.

In addition, immunotherapy is the best way to relive your summer allergies over the long run and practise good hygiene.
