What are allergy symptoms?
Allergy symptoms are physical symptoms experienced as a result of the immune system “over reacting” to exposure to a given allergen(s). Allergy symptoms are often likened to those of cold and flu. Allergy symptoms include repeated sneezing; blocked, runny or itchy nose; watery and itchy, or sore and swollen eyes; distorted sense of smell or taste and difficulty breathing. These types of allergy symptoms are referred to as allergic rhinitis or rhinoconjunctivitis, which includes hayfever. Other allergy symptoms include difficulty sleeping and tiredness during the day.
