Sneezing
One of the most common symptoms of a Dock pollen allergy is frequent, uncontrollable sneezing. This is caused by the allergen entering the nose and irritating the mucous membranes.
Itchy, Red Eyes
Another common symptom is itchy, watery, red eyes. This is also known as allergic conjunctivitis and is caused by the allergen irritating the sensitive tissues in the eyes.
Nasal Congestion
Nasal congestion or a 'blocked nose' is often experienced. An inflammatory response to the allergen causes the tissues in the nose to swell, leading to feelings of stuffiness and discomfort.
Postnasal Drip
Postnasal drip is the sensation of mucus continually dripping down the back of the throat. In response to the allergen, the body produces more mucus, leading to this uncomfortable symptom.
Itchy Throat or Ears
The throat or ears may also become itchy or ticklish. This is due to the allergen irritating these sensitive areas and part of the body’s inflammatory response.
Shortness of Breath or Wheezing
In more severe cases, Dock pollen allergy can cause shortness of breath or wheezing. This can occur if the allergen triggers inflammation in the airways, making it difficult to breathe.
