Everyone seems to know someone who has allergies. People often ask, “Isn’t everyone allergic to something?” Many people suffer from allergies without ever realizing that they have a treatable allergic condition.
Symptoms
Some symptoms can be very obvious, such as sneezing on a high pollen day or after exposure to a cat. But other symptoms can be chronic (on-going), such as recurrent upper respiratory infections, bronchitis, ear infections, headaches, cough, and fatigue. These symptoms may go unrecognized as being caused by an allergy.
People with allergic diseases may not stop to think about how much allergy symptoms are affecting their lives. But if you do, you can probably think of a number of ways in which allergies affect your quality of life. In addition to the symptoms like sneezing or watery eyes, you may not be able to enjoy outdoor activities or have a pet.
