Understanding Seasonal Allergies
Seasonal allergies, also known as hay fever or allergic rhinitis, occur when your immune system overreacts to specific allergens present in the environment. Common triggers for seasonal allergies include pollen, mold spores, and certain types of grasses, trees, or weeds. Symptoms may include sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, nasal congestion, and overall discomfort.
Comprehensive Allergy Testing
At Mulligan Family Medical Practice, we offer comprehensive allergy testing to identify the specific triggers that cause your seasonal allergy symptoms. Our skilled medical professionals will conduct a thorough evaluation to understand your symptoms, medical history, and potential exposure to allergens. We utilize various diagnostic tools, including skin prick tests and blood tests, to accurately determine the substances that trigger your allergic reactions.
Personalized Treatment Plans
Once we identify your specific allergens, our team will create a personalized treatment plan tailored to your needs and lifestyle. Depending on the severity of your symptoms and your individual circumstances, we may recommend one or more of the following treatment options:
Allergy Medications: Our providers can prescribe over-the-counter or prescription allergy medications to alleviate your symptoms. These may include antihistamines, decongestants, nasal sprays, or eye drops.
Immunotherapy: For individuals with severe or persistent allergies, allergen immunotherapy may be recommended. This treatment involves gradually introducing small amounts of allergens into your system to desensitize your immune response over time.
Environmental Control Measures: Our team will provide guidance on environmental control measures to help minimize your exposure to allergens. This may include strategies such as using air purifiers, keeping windows closed during high pollen seasons, and regularly cleaning bedding and upholstery.

At Mulligan Family Medical Practice, we believe in empowering our patients through education and ongoing support. Our team will provide you with valuable information on managing your allergies and avoiding triggers.
