Experts Say That Fall Allergy Season Is Going To Be A Bad One

Something we look forward to every fall are allergies. Well, not so much. We love the cooler mornings and evenings, however it is the start of the dreaded ragweed season.  With all of the rain that we had here in the spring, it allows the plants to germinate pollen which eventually makes its way from the plant through our noses and into our heads, thus causing a lot of misery.

Dr. Claudia Sufferidge, allergist, stated that the wet spring that was followed by a warm to hot summer is the best conditions for the proliferation of ragweed. When Mother Nature does not produce much rain in the spring, it doesn't allow plants, like ragweed, to fully pollinate.

The doctor also said that if you have muscle aches or fever, these are not due to allergies, but rather a flu or cold. Make sure you get your flu shots early.

So buckle down and be ready for a potential miserable allergy season.
