Seasonal Allergies Can Strike Year-Round: Learn About the Types
In Georgia, seasonal allergies can affect individuals throughout the year due to the state's diverse plant life and mild climate. Understanding the specific allergens prevalent in each season can help you manage and seek the right help to alleviate symptoms effectively.
Spring Allergies: Tree Pollen
During spring, trees such as oak, pine, cedar, and birch release pollen into the air, leading to common seasonal allergy symptoms like sneezing, nasal congestion, and itchy eyes.
Summer Allergies: Grass Pollen
In the summer months, grasses like Bermuda and fescue pollinate, which can cause symptoms such as runny nose, coughing, and watery eyes.
Fall Allergies: Ragweed and Mold
Fall brings about the release of ragweed pollen, a potent allergen that can travel significant distances. Additionally, mold spores become more prevalent due to decaying leaves, contributing to symptoms like sneezing, congestion, and itchy throat.
Winter Allergies: Indoor Allergens
Although outdoor allergens decrease in winter, indoor allergens such as dust mites, pet dander, and mold can trigger allergy symptoms, especially as people spend more time in their homes.
Year-Round Allergies
Allergy triggers can sometimes overlap across seasons, leading to year-round allergies. Identifying and managing these triggers, whether they’re indoors or outdoors, is key to getting relief.
