An Overview of Allergies

Allergies occur when your body overreacts to substances (allergens) that are generally harmless. Your immune system perceives these substances as threats, triggering a response that can affect multiple parts of your body.

Common allergens include:

  • Pollen
  • Mold
  • Pet dander
  • Insect bites
  • Certain foods like dairy, nuts, and grains

Some people experience seasonal symptoms, especially in spring and summer, while others may react to specific foods or insect stings.

Symptoms of Allergies

Allergic reactions can vary from mild to severe. Common symptoms include:

  • Sneezing and runny nose
  • Itchy, watery eyes
  • Coughing
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Hives or itchy skin
  • Difficulty breathing in severe cases

In extreme situations, allergies can trigger anaphylaxis, a life-threatening response that requires immediate medical attention.

Diagnosing Allergies

Our team can often identify triggers based on your symptoms, lifestyle, and family history. On-site allergy testing may be performed, exposing you to small amounts of common allergens to observe your body’s response.

Allergy Treatment Options

Once your triggers are identified, we create a personalized treatment plan to prevent future attacks.

Available treatments include:

  • Over-the-counter or prescription medications for symptom relief
  • Immunotherapy (allergy injections) to gradually reduce sensitivity to allergens
  • Emergency planning for severe allergies, including guidance on carrying epinephrine

Immunotherapy typically involves multiple injections over time to achieve lasting results. Our team ensures you receive the safest, most effective care for your unique needs.
