How serious are seasonal allergies?
For most people, allergy symptoms are just irritating. It is a quality-of-life issue more than a life-threatening condition. For a very few, however, allergies can be life-threatening. The more people are exposed to allergens, the more severe the reaction. Those with allergy issues need to be speaking to an allergist/immunologist on how to best manage their symptoms. In addition, there are some excellent natural remedies that people should try to alleviate allergy problems. References: (1) http://www.fda.gov/fdac/features/1998/298_nose.
