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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.

Monitor When Symptoms Occur
If your symptoms align with Hackberry's primary pollen season (usually spring), this could indicate a Hackberry pollen allergy.
Consider a skin prick test
This is a form of allergy testing that can determine if you are allergic to a specific type of pollen like Hackberry. A positive result (i.e. a hive or raised bump) indicates an allergy.
Perform a Blood Test
An allergen-specific IgE (Immunoglobulin E) test can measure the amount of antibodies in the blood that are formed due to an allergic reaction to specific pollens, including Hackberry.
Remember, the best way to confirm a Hackberry pollen allergy is to see an allergy specialist or immunologist who can perform specific tests and interpret them correctly.

Pollen counts are usually at their highest during dry, windy days or early in the mornings. You can check your local weather forecast for pollen count predictions and try to plan your outdoor activities for times when the count is expected to be low. Avoid activities like gardening or mowing the lawn during these high pollen periods.
High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters can be a great help when it comes to Hackberry pollen allergy. These filters can trap small particles like pollen and prevent them from circulating in the air inside your house. Use HEPA filters in your air conditioning system and also consider getting a portable air purifier for your home.
When going outside, especially during high pollen periods, wear sunglasses to protect your eyes from airborne pollen. You should also consider wearing a hat to prevent the pollen from accumulating in your hair. Wearing long sleeves and pants can also help protect your skin from coming into contact with the pollen.
Regularly wash your clothes and bedding to remove any pollen that might have settled on them. Always shower and wash your hair after coming in from outdoors. Also, regularly vacuum and clean your home to get rid of any indoor pollen. Remember to use a vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter for best results.
