At the turn of the last century, physicians were looking for the cause of hay fever, summer colds, or rose fever. They soon discovered billions of invisible pollens trigger allergy symptoms. Using technology and microscopy, they visualized plant pollens from tree, grass and weeds and concluded these were the culprits!
Hay fever can affect your quality of life. Initial symptoms include itching nose, mouth and eyes leading to sneezing, nasal congestion, and tearing of the eyes. It can lead to sinus infections, make asthma worse, disrupt your sleep and affect your ability to learn at school or be productive at work. Although we suspect you may have this condition, allergists can help pinpoint the actual cause and diagnosis with skin testing.
In this episode, Dr. Dan Dalan from MercyOne Waterloo Allergy Care joins us to talk about how people can get relief, and how to pinpoint exactly what is ailing you.
If you experience allergies or have symptoms contact your provider or find one near you to make an appointment.
