Undue Trouble—airborne Allergy
By Jason Uvios
Airborne can affect anyone at any time of the day. There is no specification as to what may cause an outbreak of allergy. Certain people suffer from bouts of sneezing in the garden or countryside. In this case, pollen is the most likely culprit causing airborne allergy. Different types of pollen like that of different flowers or pollen from the grass also cause allergic reactions. Dust mites found in the bedding is another major cause of airborne allergy. Some people are allergic to dust of chemicals found in cement at construction sites while others are allergic to animal fur.
Causes Of Airborne Allergy
You can pinpoint the cause of the airborne allergy by observing the symptoms and places where you visit or the time of the year when you suffer from the allergy. You can instantly know that you are allergic to dog fur if you play with a dog and you start to itch. While visiting a construction site, if you start to sneeze continuously you know that this is an allergic reaction to chemicals or dust.

House dust mites, also called dermatophagoides petronyssinus, eat the skin flakes present in house dust. They are extremely tiny and cannot be seen by the naked eye. Made of 80 percent water, these mites thrive on dusty and damp spots. Dust mites and their waste product are the most common cause of airborne allergies. People are also allergic to animal fur or, rather, their saliva that drops as pets move around in the house.
Treatment For Airborne Allergy
People prone to airborne allergy must avoid the causes of allergies. Doctors prescribe certain drugs that help treat airborne allergy. First line treatments like anti-inflammatory nasal sprays, antihistamines- sprays and drops, and decongestant combinations bring relief from airborne allergies. When these fail to provide relief the second line treatment is used. These consist of decongestant sprays and tablets.
