Question

Explain two types of allergy

Answer 1

Seasonal allergies

1. Seasonal allergic rhinitis is a term used to describe seasonal allergies.
2. During particular periods of the year, trees, grasses, and weeds release small pollen particles into the air to nourish other plants, causing allergy symptoms.
3. People who are allergic to pollen have their immune systems treat these particles (called allergens) as intruders, releasing substances such as histamine into the circulation to protect against them.
4. Allergy symptoms are caused by the release of these substances. Some of the symptoms include:

1. Sneezing
2. Itchy nose and/or throat
3. Nasal congestion
4. Clear, runny nose
5. Postnasal drip

2. It does not go away with the seasons or months of the year, unlike other allergies. we may feel as if we have a constant cold that refuses to go away.
3. Symptoms of perennial allergies include nasal obstruction, sneezing, itching, or rhinorrhea are some of the common symptoms of perennial allergies.
