Spring brings warmer weather, blooming flowers, and longer days. Unfortunately, it also means allergy season is on the way. As trees, grass, and plants begin releasing pollen into the air, many people start experiencing the uncomfortable symptoms of seasonal allergies.

If you notice more sneezing, congestion, or itchy eyes this time of year, you’re not alone. Spring allergies affect millions of people each year.

Common Spring Allergy Symptoms

Seasonal allergies can cause a variety of symptoms, including:

  • Sneezing

  • Runny or stuffy nose

  • Itchy or watery eyes

  • Sinus pressure or headaches

  • Frequent coughing

  • Nasal congestion

These symptoms can make it difficult to focus at work, get a good night’s sleep, or enjoy time outdoors.
