summer allergies

Seasonal allergies are an extremely common problem and affect millions of people worldwide.  Treatment for these allergies is often very simple and only requires home treatment.  We can help you find ways to get relief from your allergies.  Often we are only affected by certain allergies during certain times of the year.  It’s spring for some, summer for others.  If you have suddenly started experiencing mild to severe allergy symptoms, it may be because of a recent shift in the seasons.  Luckily, seasonal allergy symptoms are usually very treatable and not too severe.  If you wish you speak to a specialist about allergy remedies or natural allergy treatment, call us at 855-528-7348 to schedule an appointment.

Severe allergies should be avoided at all costs and you should first take a look around you to see if there are any possible allergens surrounding you in your home.  For example, dust allergies, dog allergies and cat allergies are very common to experience in the home.  If you have a pet allergy, this can be remedied by buying hypoallergenic pet shampoo and washing your animals regularly.  Pet allergy symptoms are usually not too severe, especially if you are used to being around pets.  However, if you have been feeling overwhelmed by your pet allergies, you might want to look into allergy testing.  This will let you know just how allergic you are to animals and whether or not it is hazardous to your health to keep them in your home.  Cat allergy treatment and dog allergy treatment are very possible options for those who simply can’t live without their furry best friends.  If you have any more questions about dogs and allergies, give us a call at 855-528-7348.  There are many home allergy treatments for pet allergies that you can find at your local drugstore.

Another very common seasonal allergy is a dust mites allergy.  This can be easily avoided by keeping your home clean and free of excess dust.  Sweeping about once a week should do the trick!  Pollen allergies are also always a problem during the spring and early summer months.  Pollen allergy symptoms can often be unbearable and can keep you from even wanting to go outside!  Always be aware of the pollen level in your area, which you can easily find online.  Food allergies are also very common, although they are not often labeled as seasonal allergies because they can come around at any time.  At Allergy and Asthma Clinical Centers we offer food allergy testing along with a wide range of other tests.  If you have any more questions about our services or about remedies for your allergies, search our website or visit us at one of our location in Manassas, VA, Germantown, MD or Poolesville, MD.
