Pollen Allergy
Pollen allergy, also known as hay fever, is an allergic reaction to pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds, which can lead to an increased respiratory rate among other symptoms. It typically occurs during specific seasons, with tree pollen in spring, grass pollen in late spring and summer, and weed pollen in late summer and fall.
Dust Mite Allergy
Dust mite allergy is a reaction to tiny bugs that commonly live in household dust. Symptoms are often year-round but can worsen during the indoor heating season when dust mite populations increase due to lower humidity levels.
Pet Dander Allergy
Pet dander allergy is a sensitivity to proteins found in an animal's skin cells, urine, and saliva. It can occur year-round but may be more pronounced during seasons when pets shed more.
Mold Allergy
Mold allergy is a response to spores from mold and fungi. It can occur in any damp environment but is more common in the late summer and fall when mold counts are higher due to increased humidity.
Ragweed Allergy
Ragweed allergy is a reaction to the pollen from ragweed plants. It's a common cause of increased respiratory rate during late summer and fall, particularly in August through November.
Cockroach Allergy
Cockroach allergy stems from proteins found in cockroach droppings, saliva, and body parts. It can trigger year-round symptoms, as cockroaches are typically present in homes throughout the year.
