Hay Fever & Eye Allergy

Allergic Rhinitis (Hay Fever):

Rhinitis means "inflammation of the nose." Mucus is a substance produced by the nose. This liquid is often transparent and thin. It aids in preventing the inhalation of allergens, dust, and debris. Dust, pollen, germs, and viruses are all trapped by mucus.

In most cases, mucus slides down the back of your throat. Because it is a small and thin amount, you frequently need to be aware of this. More mucus may be produced, which thickens and becomes pale yellow when the nose is inflamed. The nose's rear and front may start to leak mucus. The back of the throat may get irritated by mucus-containing substances, resulting in coughing. More mucus goes down the back of the throat, causing the postnasal drip.

It is common to refer to seasonal allergic rhinitis as "hay fever." It is an allergic reaction to weed, grass, and tree pollen. This rhinitis is more common when grass, weeds, and tree pollen are in the air in the spring and fall.



Allergens that are there all year round induce perennial allergic rhinitis. Dust mite, mold, animal, and cockroach dander allergies mainly contribute to this rhinitis.

Allergic Conjunctivitis (Eye Allergy)

Eye allergies, commonly known as allergic conjunctivitis, are prevalent. They happen when the eyes are irritated by anything (called an allergen). The sights and conjunctiva become red, puffy, and itchy. Tears, burning, and sensitivity to light can occur in the eyes. Eye allergies, unlike other types of conjunctivitis, do not transfer from person to person.

Nasal allergies, which produce an itchy, stuffy nose and sneezing, are more common in those with eye allergies.

It is generally a transient syndrome caused by seasonal allergies.

Pet dander, dust, pollen, smoking, fragrances, and even foods can cause eye allergies. Your allergies may become more severe if you cannot avoid the source.
