In North Texas, fall is one of the most difficult seasons for allergy sufferers. Ragweed, dust, and mold are common triggers, and they often lead to sinus infections, congestion, and lingering discomfort.
Common Symptoms of Fall Allergies
- Sneezing and runny nose
- Itchy, watery eyes
- Sinus headaches and pressure
- Scratchy throat
- Fatigue or poor sleep
Why Fall Allergies Hit Texans Harder
Allergy season runs longer in Texas compared to most states. Warm weather and short winters mean allergens stay active for months. In North Texas, ragweed, mold, and grass pollens are constant triggers that make symptoms difficult to control.
Why Preventive Allergy and Sinus Care Is Important
Preventive care helps:
- Reduce the risk of sinus infections
- Lower chances of asthma flare ups
- Improve energy and focus
- Prevent small problems from becoming chronic issues
Common Questions About Fall Allergies
What is the best way to prevent allergies?
Starting care before symptoms are severe is best. Using air filters, rinsing your sinuses, and seeking ENT guidance can keep reactions under control.
Can allergies be cured?
Allergies cannot be cured, but long-term treatments like shots or drops can reduce symptoms and build tolerance.
Can allergy care help sinus infections?
Yes. Allergies often lead to swelling that blocks nasal drainage, creating sinus infections. Preventive allergy care lowers this risk.
Is balloon sinuplasty an option?
Yes. Balloon sinuplasty is a minimally invasive sinus procedure offered at Texas ENT & Allergy to improve breathing when chronic sinus issues are linked to allergies.
