Causes of Allergies

Causes of Hay Fever or Allergic Rhinitis

Among the most common cause of hay fever is an allergy to plant, grass, or tree pollens. However, identical symptoms may result from inhaling fungal spores, dust, or animal hair. When the hay fever symptoms are seasonal, the appearance’s timing is based upon the dust type that causes an allergic reaction in the victim. The initial pollens to appear annually are tree pollens, leading to hay fever in early spring, depending upon how severe the winter was. Later in the season, grass pollens look for a brief period; they are subsequently followed by ragweed pollen.

Fungal spores are abundant in the atmosphere from mid summers until late autumn. The most likely allergens present in the atmosphere throughout the year may also lead to problems from time to time and appear to cause seasonal symptoms.
