When an individual has pecan pollen allergy, he experiences sudden and repetitive sneezes. This occurs as a result of the body's defense mechanism to expel the allergen present inside the body.
A well-known symptom of pecan pollen allergy is having itchy and watery eyes. The person can experience intense itching sensation and discomfort in the eyes since they get irritated by the allergen.
Pecan pollen allergy can cause the lining of the nose to swell and produce more mucus, leading to a blocked or congested nose. This symptom makes it difficult for the person to breathe normally.
Exposure to pecan pollen often leads to a runny nose. This is due to the body's immune system reacting to the allergen and producing mucus to trap and expel it, causing a continuous nasal discharge.
Individuals allergic to pecan pollen may experience an itchy throat. This is caused by the allergenic pollen irritating the lining of the throat, leading to a scratchy or itchy feeling.
Another common symptom of pecan pollen allergy is frequent coughing. The body utilises this reflex action to expel the allergen from the lungs and throat, leading to periods of continual coughing.

Pecan pollen is airborne and is most prevalent during peak blooming periods which are usually in the spring. During these times, it is advisable to avoid outdoor activities especially in the morning when pollen count is highest. It’s best to stay indoors, keep windows closed and use air purifying devices to limit exposure to pecan pollen.
If you must go outside, consider wearing sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat to prevent pollen from getting into your eyes. Wearing a face mask can also be effective in filtering out airborne pollen particles. After returning indoors, change your clothing and take a shower to remove any pollen that might have settled on your body.
Regular and thorough cleaning of your home can help reduce the amount of indoor pollen. This can include vacuuming carpets and rugs, wiping down surfaces and washing bedding frequently. Air filters and purifiers can also help remove airborne particles. Using a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter in your vacuum cleaner and installing a similar type of air filter in your central heating and cooling system can be particularly effective.
If avoidance and home sanitation efforts aren't enough, consider seeking medical treatment. Over-the-counter antihistamines, nasal sprays, and decongestants can help to control allergy symptoms. For more severe allergies, immunotherapy (allergy shots or tablets) may be recommended. Always consult with your healthcare provider for best treatment options.
