As spring approaches in the DMV area, many of us look forward to warmer weather; but for millions, it also marks the start of seasonal allergies.
An allergy occurs when the immune system reacts to a normally harmless substance as if it were dangerous. These reactions can range from mild symptoms like watery eyes to severe, life-threatening conditions such as anaphylaxis. In fact, over 106 million people (about 1 in 3 individuals) in the U.S. experience allergies each year.
