Perennial Allergies

Perennial allergies are year-round allergic reactions typically triggered by indoor allergens like dust, mold, and pet dander. At SPRING ENT, we offer advanced allergy testing and targeted treatments to help patients breathe easier and feel better every day of the year.

What Are Perennial Allergies & When Should You Seek Treatment?

Perennial allergies differ from seasonal allergies in that symptoms persist throughout the year. These allergies are caused by consistent exposure to allergens such as dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, and indoor pollutants. They can trigger chronic sinus symptoms and lead to persistent nasal inflammation, discomfort, and fatigue.

Common symptoms of perennial allergies include:

  • Runny or stuffy nose
  • Sneezing
  • Postnasal drip
  • Sinus pressure or facial heaviness
  • Chronic coughing or throat clearing
  • Itchy eyes, nose, or throat
  • Fatigue from poor sleep

If your nose constantly runs or feels congested, or if you often feel facial pressure and sinus discomfort, allergies may be the culprit. When over-the-counter treatments aren’t enough, or when symptoms start interfering with daily life, it's time to seek a professional allergy evaluation.
