Runny Nose
A common symptom of a Hackberry pollen allergy is a runny nose. The released pollen can irritate the nasal passages causing them to produce excess mucus, resulting in constant sniffing and blowing of the nose.
Watery Eyes
Exposure to Hackberry pollen can cause your eyes to become inflamed and produce excess tears. This reaction, known as allergic conjunctivitis, can make your eyes red, itchy, and watery.
Sneezing
Another common symptom of a Hackberry pollen allergy is repetitive sneezing. Due to the irritation in the nasal passages, the response of the body is to sneeze, in an attempt to get rid of the pollen grains.
Coughing
Coughing is a reflex action to clear your airways and throat. With a Hackberry pollen allergy, the pollen can inflame the throat causing an irritating and persistent cough.
Itchy Throat and Mouth
Some people may experience an itchy throat and mouth as a result of an allergic reaction to Hackberry pollen. This usually occurs when the pollen is ingested or inhaled, causing mild to severe itching inside your mouth and/or throat.
Difficulty Breathing
In severe cases, Hackberry pollen can cause difficulty in breathing. This usually comes in the form of shortness of breath, wheezing or tightness in chest, and can be a symptom of allergic asthma, which needs immediate medical attention.
