What Is Hay Fever?
Hay fever, otherwise known as allergic rhinitis, is caused by an allergic reaction to allergens such as pollen, mold, pet dander, or dust mites. Hay fever can occur any time of year, but is most common during the spring and fall. Symptoms of hay fever can easily be mistaken for the common cold as both can cause sneezing, runny nose, congestion, and itchy eyes. However, a cold is more likely to cause sore throat, a low-grade fever, and cough as well. Learn more below about how hay fever differs from the common cold.
Common Causes of Fall Allergies
While springtime is usually considered prime time for allergies because of the blooming trees, plants, and grasses, seasonal allergies often occur in the fall as well. Spending more time indoors combined with the falling leaves and blooming ragweed make the fall the second most active time of year for allergies.
Ragweed
The most common allergen in the fall is ragweed. It begins to bloom in August and continues to cause problems for those who are allergic well into the fall. If you are allergic to ragweed, you will probably experience symptoms until the first freeze of the winter when the plant is killed off.
If ragweed is causing your allergies this fall, it's time to try Allergena. Simply find your zone based on where you live and choose the corresponding allergy-relief drops.
Mold
As beautiful as falling leaves are, they create an ideal environment for mold and mildew to grow. Mold can also grow inside your home in areas like basements, bathrooms, and kitchens where there is moisture. While you will have to find and remove any mold in your home yourself to get rid of the allergen, the mold that grows outdoors usually goes dormant during the winter months.
Are you suffering from a mold or mildew allergy? Try Allergena’s homeopathic Mold Mix allergy-relief drops. This remedy will help your body build up a healthy immune response to almost 20 different types of mold and fungi.
Dust Mites
As the weather cools, we tend to spend more time indoors, making us more susceptible to allergies caused by dust mites. These microscopic arthropods feed on small flakes of skin and thrive at room temperature. Keeping the humidity in your home low and cleaning out your air vents, pillows, and other furniture will help to keep them at bay.
If you are experiencing fall allergies and you think dust mites might be the cause, try Allergena Dust + Mite. This homeopathic allergy treatment can help you find relief from allergies to many common dust mites.
Pet Dander
Now that you are spending more time in your home, pet dander can also start to become a problem for those who are allergic. If you have allergies to your pet, you should have them bathed and groomed often, consider keeping them off of the furniture, and keep your air vents clean to try to minimize pet dander from triggering your allergies.
Are you allergic to the pet dander from your dog or cat? Try Allergena Pet Dander to relieve your symptoms. These homeopathic allergy-relief drops can help you find relief from your runny nose, sneezing, congestion, and other allergy symptoms.
