Pollen Allergy
Pollen allergy occurs when pollen from plants such as trees, grasses, and weeds trigger an immune response. Symptoms are often evidence in spring, summer, or fall, depending on the specific type of pollen.
Dust Mite Allergy
Dust mite allergy is caused by microscopic bugs present in dust, leading to symptoms like itching and sneezing. This allergy can occur year-round but may worsen during the winter when homes are closed up.
Pet Allergy
Pet allergy stems from proteins found in the skin cells, urine, and saliva of animals such as cats and dogs. It can occur at any time of the year, particularly when in contact with animals.
Mold Allergy
Mold allergy results from mold spores and can cause symptoms similar to those of pollen allergies. This allergy is typically worse in the late summer and early fall but can be perennial in damp climates.
Nickel Allergy
Nickel allergy is a common cause of allergic contact dermatitis typified by itchy skin when in contact with items containing nickel, such as jewelry. It does not have a specific season and can occur at any time.
Grass Allergy
Grass allergy is triggered by several types of grass, often leading to skin irritation and respiratory symptoms. It primarily occurs during late spring and early summer when grasses pollinate.
