Allergies

Allergies occur when the body’s immune system reacts to normally harmless substances like pollen, dust, or certain foods. Seasonal and environmental allergies are common and can cause persistent discomfort if left untreated.

Common symptoms include:

• Sneezing, nasal congestion, or runny nose
• Itchy or watery eyes
• Cough, wheezing, or shortness of breath
• Skin rashes or hives
• Fatigue or headache from prolonged irritation
• Indigestion and other gastrointestinal symptoms
