Many of us are not even aware that we might be allergic to certain things. Some people are allergic to certain foods, others to certain materials, and several more to specific substances. In the spring season, for example, some people exhibit allergy to grass. Unless these symptoms are very strong (which only happens if people have chronic allergies), many people suffer mild discomfort and may not necessarily even know that they have allergies. Which would not be a problem but for the fact that if one does not treat their allergies on time, the allergies might get worse and could lead to health complications. In some cases, they could even be fatal. That is why it becomes very, very important to be aware of these allergy symptoms. We will get to those in the following section. Symptoms of Mold Allergy Mold is commonly found in areas that are slightly or excessively wet. Bathroom floors, sink tiles, garden walls, shower stalls, washing machines, refrigerators, air conditioners vaults, and other such places, provide the perfect setting for mold to grow (Mold can be toxic). Several people are allergic to mold. Here are some telltale symptoms that you can look into:

• Runny noses
• Difficulty in drawing breaths
• Coughing (even blood, where chronic mold Is concerned)
• Sneezing
• Chronic headaches that lead to aggravated sinusitis
• Eyes that are red, swollen, and itching
• Skin rash and redness
• Developing hives on the body
• Dizziness
• Chest blockage
• Memory loss
• Nausea and diarrhea
• Pulmonary hemorrhage
• Anemia
• Postnasal drip
• Wheezing

Symptoms of Yeast Allergy Yeast is a kind of fungi that grows in our bodies and is found in several foods as well. When the growth of yeast in our body increases, the body reacts by producing antibodies and antihistamines that leads to the allergy. Yeast that is present in foods like cheese, mushrooms, breads and others can further aggravate the allergy. The following are some symptoms of yeast allergy:

• Nasal congestion
• Headaches
• Ringing in the ear
• Inability to concentrate
• Skin rash
• Runny nose
• Abdominal pain
• Itchy skin
• Digestion problems
• Diarrhea
• Flatulence
• Eczema
• Constipation
• Depression
• Sore throat
• Red and itchy eyes
• Heartburn
• Chronic bouts of coughing
• Fatigue
• Thrush on tongue

Symptoms of Gluten Allergy There are several foods that can lead to food allergies. Gluten is a protein substance that is found in cereals like wheat, rye, oats, and others. It is the substance that helps to bind the dough together. Since it is a tough substance, many people find it difficult to digest it and therefore develop gluten intolerance symptoms. Here are some of them given below:

• Bloating
• Indigestion
• Stomach Cramps
• Headaches
• Diarrhea
• Irregular and bad stools
• Anemia
• Hives
• Skin rash
• Depression
• Osteoporosis
• Eczema
• Swollen mouth
• Irritability
• Unexplained weight loss
• Flatulence
• Rectal bleeding
• Heartburn
• Asthma
• Joint pain

This is only one aspect of food allergies. There are several such foods that can cause symptoms of an allergy in some people. Some of the common ones are―dairy products, alcohol, peanuts, shrimp, eggs, other nuts, soy, lactose etc. Symptoms of Chlorine Allergy Chlorine allergies are most common in reference to chlorine that is added in swimming pools. But that's not all, chlorine is also found in foods, medicines, textiles, metals, dyes, paper, explosives, water purifiers, and several other substances. We develop chlorine allergies just like we develop mold allergies―our immune system produces antibodies to fight chlorine-packed substances. Here are some of these allergy symptoms.

• Difficulty in breathing
• Coughing
• Sneezing
• Suffocation
• Asthma
• Wheezing
• Dry skin
• Itching and rashes
• Peeling of skin
• Watery, red, and swollen eyes
• Pain in eyes
• Burning and itching eyes

It is easy to mistake these symptoms for minor infections, and the tendency to ignore them will therefore be high. But killing that first instinct, if one learns to understand that these might be an underlying cause of some major condition and could lead to complications, then they'll be able to administer allergy relief and nip the bud before it gets too late. So the next time, try to keep a look out for the same.
