Allergy Symptoms in Arlington Heights

An allergy is an overreaction of the immune system as it thinks it is being invaded by a parasite rather than a food or harmless allergen in the environment, and therefore it rallies its defenses to fight off the enemy.

The list of symptoms caused by allergies is longer than you might think. Primary signs of allergies include:

• Runny or congested nose
• Sneezing
• Watery and itchy eyes
• Asthma
• Frequent ear infections
• Sinus headaches
• Nasal polyps
• Conjunctivitis (eye irritation)
• Muscle/joint pain
• Fatigue
• Mental problems such as confusion, slow thinking, depression, and forgetfulness
• Respiratory effects including endless colds, chronic cough, recurrent bronchitis
