Treatment for Seasonal Allergy Symptoms Available in Tampa, FL

In the springtime of each year, millions of people seek medical treatment for bothersome allergy symptoms. The most common culprit is pollen, a fine, powder-like substance produced by many blossoming trees and plants. Although pollen is not dangerous, you could be allergic to it. For instance, you may experience an allergic reaction if your immune system misinterprets the harmless pollen you inhale as a threat, then tries to destroy it, setting off a variety of unpleasant symptoms.

Is Your Immune System Overreacting?

You are probably suffering from seasonal allergies if you experience any of these symptoms at the first sign of spring:

  • Relentless sneezing
  • Frequent bouts of coughing
  • Red, watery eyes
  • A stuffy or runny nose
  • Sinus congestion and headaches
  • Hives and other itchy skin rashes

Mild allergy symptoms often respond well to an antihistamine or nasal decongestant. Your provider at South Tampa Immediate Care may also suggest a series of allergy shots to help control your immune system response to pollen or another allergen over time.

On the other hand, a severe allergic reaction can be life-threatening and therefore requires emergency medical attention. If your allergy symptoms include persistent vomiting, shortness of breath, a weak or rapid pulse, dizziness, or fainting, you should immediately call 911 or go directly to the nearest hospital ER.
