Achoo! You’re sneezing, your nose is stuffy, and your eyes are watering. If it’s not a cold or other bug, it might be allergies. When people suffer from seasonal allergies, they are often experiencing a common type of chronic allergic reaction referred to as hay fever or allergic rhinitis.
Over 50 million Americans experience seasonal allergies each year—it’s very common. Even though it’s called “seasonal” allergies, allergic rhinitis can occur year-round, although many people find fall and spring to be the worst time period.
Common Allergy Symptoms
Unfortunately, allergy symptoms typically last for as long as the allergen is in the air, or as long as you are exposed to the specific trigger. This could be several weeks or months, depending on the situation.
Why Do I Experience Allergy Symptoms?
Allergy symptoms occur when your body mistakes a harmless substance (such as plant pollen) as a threat and reacts accordingly for a dangerous invader. Your body produces a chemical called histamine to protect you, which is the source of many allergy symptoms such as sneezing and a stuffy nose.
Cities with the Worst Seasonal Allergy Problems
If you live in one of these cities, you might experience allergies more frequently and more severely. It’s nothing to worry about, but it is good to know—especially if you recently moved to one of these locations and are having more allergy flare-ups than before.
These cities are ranked for being the least challenging places to live in terms of seasonal allergies.
There are a variety of medications available to help reduce the symptoms of seasonal allergies. Typical over-the-counter (OTC) medications include:

- Keep doors and windows closed and use an air filtration system or run your air conditioner

- Change clothes and shoes after spending time outdoors
- Vacuum floors often to remove pollen tracked or blown indoors
