Exposure to Elm pollen can lead to a runny or stuffy nose. This symptom occurs when your immune system overreacts to the inhaled pollen, causing increased mucus production and nasal inflammation.
Pollen allergies can also lead to irritated, watery, and itchy eyes, a condition known as allergic conjunctivitis. The eyes may also become red and swollen as a response to the allergen.
Often, those allergic to Elm pollen will experience bouts of sneezing. This is a natural defence mechanism used by the body to expel allergens from the nasal cavity.
The reaction to Elm pollen can also cause itchiness in the throat or ears. This can be quite uncomfortable and is caused by the body trying to remove the irritating allergen.
Elm pollen allergy can cause a cough. The body uses coughing as another way to expel the allergens from the airways and lungs. This coughing may also be accompanied by a shortness of breath.
In some cases, Elm pollen can cause skin reactions, leading to hives or eczema. The skin may become itchy, reddened, and inflamed, and in some cases, small raised bumps may appear.

Elm pollen is often at its peak on dry, windy days. You can check local weather reports for pollen forecasts and try to avoid spending extended amounts of time outdoors when the pollen count is high. Instead, consider indoor activities to limit your exposure.
Using air purifiers, changing HVAC filters regularly, and keeping windows closed during high pollen times can reduce the amount of pollen that enters your living space. It may also be beneficial to shower and change clothing after being outside to remove any pollen that may have transferred onto you.
Immunotherapy, which exposes your body to small doses of the allergenic substance, can reduce sensitivity over time. Allergy shots or tablets can be effective in managing severe elm pollen allergies in consultation with a healthcare professional.
Antihistamines, nasal sprays, and eye drops can help manage mild symptoms of elm pollen allergies. Non-prescription medications can provide temporary relief from symptoms like itching, sneezing, and runny nose. Always ensure you follow the instructions on the label and consult a healthcare professional if symptoms persist.
