A common symptom of cedar pollen allergy is a runny or stuffy nose. This happens when your body reacts to the pollen by producing more mucus to flush out the allergens, causing the nose to run or become blocked.
Another immediate reaction to cedar pollen is frequent and sudden bouts of sneezing. This is a reflex to expel allergens from the nasal passages.
Exposure to cedar pollen may also cause your eyes to itch or water excessively. This is a reaction to the allergen coming into contact with eye tissues.
"Postnasal drip" refers to the feeling of mucus moving down the throat from the back of your nose. This happens due to exacerbated mucous production caused by the allergen.
Sinus pressure, or a feeling of pain and pressure in the forehead and cheeks, can occur as a result of the nasal congestion and inflammation caused by the reaction to cedar pollen.
An allergic reaction to cedar pollen can lead to a temporary decreased or warped sense of taste or smell, due to the inflammation and excess mucus blocking the olfactory (smell) receptors in the nose.
Recognize your symptoms?
Identifying Symptoms of Cedar Pollen Allergy
The first step in recognising if you have cedar pollen allergy is by identifying the common symptoms associated often with it which includes:
Timing of Symptoms
Consider the timing of your symptoms. Cedar pollen levels are typically high in late winter and early spring. If you notice that your symptoms peak during this time, you may have a cedar pollen allergy.
Consider Exposure to Cedar Trees
Understanding your exposure to cedar trees can also help identify a cedar pollen allergy. If you live or spend a lot of time in regions where cedar trees are common, this may increase the likelihood of having a cedar pollen allergy.
Seek Medical Advice
Get a professional evaluation. If you think you have symptoms consistent with a cedar pollen allergy, it is advisable to consult with an allergist. They can administer allergy tests that can help confirm or rule out a cedar pollen allergy.

Am I eligible?
During the cedar pollen season, try to keep the pollen out of your house as much as possible. That can be achieved by keeping the windows and doors closed, using air purifiers and changing the filters of your HVAC system regularly.
Cedar pollen counts tend to be higher on warm, windy, dry days and lower after rainfall. Try to minimize exposure to outdoor activities during peak pollen times, and take advantage of rainy days when pollen counts are typically lower.
When going outside during high pollen counts, wear sunglasses to protect your eyes and a hat to prevent pollen from sticking to your hair. If the pollen count is incredibly high, you could also consider wearing a face mask.
Antihistamines can help to reduce allergic reactions to cedar pollen. Nasal sprays and eye drops can alleviate cedar allergy symptoms. For severe allergies, consider immunotherapy, an allergy shot regimen administered by an allergist to help your body build up immunity to pollen.
