Grass allergy is one of the more usual type of allergies which affects persons having its histories during the spring and summer seasons. The grass allergies are related to hay fever as indications and causes are the same.
If you have a grass allergy, you should learn and understand how to live with this allergy so that you could enjoy being outdoors or sitting in your garden. It's about quality of life.
Symptoms of the allergic reaction
Allergy take place when your body’s immune system over reacts to a substance that it condiders as a potential health danger.
The most typical indication of a grass allergy is sneezing, itchy eyes, and runny nose, what is also called rhinitis. Rhinitis is a condition in which the lining of the nose, back of the mouth and throat is inflamed. The allergic rhinitis is a very common illness that many individuals suffer as a consequence of pollen, dust or other airborne particles.
This rhinitis is caused by an increase in histamine, and this is normally caused by airborne allergens.
Further, many people with a grass allergy also suffer from other types of allergies.
Grass - an allergen
Grass pollen was detected for the first time as probable trigger of periodic hay fever in late 19th century. There are more than one thousand varieties of grass but only a few causes an allergic reaction which could make it difficult to diagnos a grass sensitivity without proper examination.
Grass-like plants are among the most flexible life forms on our planet. Plants having grass-like structures have existed for millions of years. Unluckily, for some of us this makes it pretty hard to avoid exposure to this type of pollen.
Treatments
Essentially there are three kinds of treatments available. The first one is pretty obvious - if you have an airborne allergy to grass, you might try staying away from the grasses that promote your rhinitis. This is often much easier said than done, but you should at least go inside when your neighbor cuts the lawn
The second kind of treatment include medication taken on a regular basis, and among the most effective treatments for hay fever are nasal sprays (antihistaminic and/or cortisone) and antihistaminic tablets. If taken regularly, these medications help you to relieve the allergic reactions caused by the hay fever. This treatment can improve your quality of life considerably.
The third treatment is immunotherapy, a remedy which treats the underlying cause of the allergic reaction. Immunotherapy starts with subcutaneous injections of a small amount of grass allergen, slowly increasing the dose until your body starts to tolerate exposure without producing an allergic response. This is a treatment that can take years to conclude, but the benefits are long lasting.
