Allergies

Allergies occur when your immune system reacts to a foreign substance — such as pollen, bee venom, or pet dander — or a food that doesn't cause a reaction in most people. Allergy symptoms can affect your airways, sinuses and nasal passages, skin, and digestive system. Allergic reactions can range from mild to severe. In some severe cases, allergies can trigger a life-threatening reaction known as anaphylaxis.

We can prescribe medication to treat the symptoms of allergies that you might have and advice on how to decrease the likelihood of flare-ups.
