Annoying allergy |
|
Battling allergic rhinitis during this month of
flowers
|
|
By Perry Gil S. Mallari, Reporter
May is the month of flowers. But while nature is
in full bloom, so is the risk of allergy. Pollen is but one of the
many airborne particles in the environment. If a person has pollen
sensitivity, inhaling pollen
could trigger hay fever symptoms or
allergic rhinitis.
Allergic rhinitis is characterized by the
swelling of the mucous membrane in the nose and sinuses. It may
sometime appear like a common cold because a runny nose accompanies
it but it is really caused by either allergy or respiratory tract
infection.
