Allergens:

We have several allergens by our side. But the most commons are

-Pollens : tree, grass or ragweed pollens
-Mold spores
-Mites
-Stings of insects
-Feathers
-Animal dander
-Even certain foods and medicines may cause allergies too.

Symptoms:

-Eyes get affected much. Eyes become watery and itchy.

-Sneezing is another common symptom. It is followed by running nose.

-Reaction: Anaphylactic Shock

-It can be a threat to life if not treated properly. It is generally linked to insect stings.

Precaution:

-Do not use ceiling fans in the time of allergy because these fans may spread pollen in your home.

-Do not use dyes. Dandruff shampoos many times contain dye. So be careful while using anti dandruff shampoo because you may get allergic to the dye.

-Cover your sleeping mattress and pillows with anti allergic materials.

-Buy non allergic carpets to cover your floor
