Privacy Breach Notice Update, 4/6/2023.
With convenient hours, experienced providers and accessible locations throughout your area (even virtual care visits), we have options to help relieve your sneeze:
Allergies are physiological reactions caused when the immune system reacts to a foreign substance (allergen) that has been inhaled, touched, or eaten by a person. Allergies are among the most common heath problems, with more than 50 million people afflicted with asthma, seasonal hay fever, or other allergy-related conditions each year.
Always consult a licensed health care provider for a diagnosis, but these common allergy symptoms will alert you to a problem:
Call 911 immediately if the victim has a reaction to an allergen and experiences trouble breathing or has a history of airway swelling (anaphylaxis).
Persistent allergy symptoms can be treated by a nasal steroid spray. For intermittent symptoms, take an over-the-counter, non-sedating allergy medicine such as loratadine or cetirizine.
Relief starts with expert diagnosis and treatment from CHI Health. Schedule an appointment with your Primary Care or ENT provider or visit with a Virtual Quick Care provider on the phone or online for help with your symptoms.
