For many, fall is the season of sneezes, headaches, and sinus pressure. Because of seasonal shifts in the climate, more allergens are present that can trigger fall sinus allergies. You may find yourself with a case of fall sinusitis, which can lead to ongoing pain and discomfort throughout the season.
If you notice allergy symptoms flare up during this time of year, it is a good idea to explore different options for managing your sinus pain. With the right care, you can find relief and enjoy everything that fall has to offer here in Las Vegas, NV.
Understand Your Fall Allergens
Ragweed is by far the most prevalent and obtrusive cause of fall sinus allergies in Las Vegas. This pollen and others begin to filtrate the air around late September and October, and they last through late November. It can be a frustrating experience to try and enjoy the nicer weather when you’re constantly afflicted with headaches, congestion, watery eyes, and sinus pain.
Additional allergens can come from HVAC systems; it’s important to have your air filter changed for the season to avoid exposure to pollens, bacteria, and other pollutants that have built up in the filter’s fibers all summer long.
Work With a Sinus Specialist
Sinus specialists are the best to discuss your allergy symptoms with because they have a deep knowledge of sinus structure and immunological function. They can provide insight into your allergy symptoms and recommend the best treatments.
If you find that your fall sinus allergies aren’t responding well to over-the-counter treatments, consider working with an expert. Dr. Sikand is a board-certified otolaryngologist (ENT) who specializes in sinus treatment.
