Introduction: Allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hay fever, is a widespread condition that leads to sneezing, a runny or stuffy nose, and itchy eyes, nose, or throat. It happens when your body reacts to things like pollen, dust, mold, or pet dander. Depending on the specific triggers, these symptoms can appear during certain seasons (like spring or fall) or persist all year long if you’re constantly exposed to allergens.
Causes: Allergic rhinitis is caused by your immune system’s overreaction to allergens like pollen, dust mites, mold spores, or pet hair. When these allergens enter your body, it reacts by releasing chemicals such as histamine, which leads to the common allergy symptoms. Each person’s sensitivity to allergens can be different, and understanding what specifically triggers your symptoms is key to managing the condition effectively.
