Negative Effects of Seasonal Allergies

Before coming to have an understanding of various seasonal allergies, first let's know what these really are. Inflammation of the mucus membrane is the cause of allergies. The interior of our nasal passage has the said membrane. On getting inflamed, the membrane causes irritation. These affect a lot many people and often vary, depending on season.

Let's take winter allergies first. Most winter allergies comprise of dust, mold allergies and animal. People tend to develop allergies to all these things as they are quite likely to have either or all these inside the home during winters. Try to have a closer look to the atmosphere you create at home during winters. You tend to keep the furnace on most of the time for keeping the house warm, thus generating dust. Mold also has a tendency to prevail in warmer area, and therefore sets inside the house. And, the pets too are naturally inclined and encouraged to remain indoors. All this makes you prone to developing allergies most of the winters. Now, don't rush to conclude that you would sneeze or cough during this season only. It only means that the chances of your experiencing allergies in winters are much more than in any other season.

Next comes the spring season. Most of us are prompted to get out of the house and start getting ready the flower beds to be able to enjoy the forthcoming weather. Spring is good not only for planting but also for the growth of plants. The growth of plants necessarily releases what are known as pollens. A lot of people are unable to bear pollens, and caught unawares that causes their condition to worsen.

Next comes the summer season. Most allergies of this weather are connected to weeds and grass. As you are aware the two grow fastest during this part of the year. That prompts you to cut them rather frequently. And that's where the catch is. As you cut them more frequently, more are your chances of getting exposed to allergies. One very common symptom is to get itchy or watery eyes on entering the house soon after cutting grass.

Finally, we experience fall. People do get affected during this season, though attacks are not severe. That's because this time of the year plants don't grow. So, not much pollen is released. Certain things that you carried during summer, may still irritate you at times but this time of the year wouldn't normally get as much irritation.

Finally, it all depends upon what are you suffering from that could make you experience any kind of seasonal conditions. It's very common to have seasonal allergies, but it's important to get tested for allergies and take remedial measures to have control over this malady.
