IMPACT OF NASAL ALLERGY SYMPTOMS
Nasal allergy symptoms can affect your quality of life
*Living and dealing with the symptoms of nasal allergies can be tough. You may
not sleep through the night. You may sneeze all day at work, if you feel well enough
to even get to work. That is because nasal allergies may cause:
Decreased ability to concentrate and function
Decreased decision-making capacity
Impaired hand-eye coordination
Forgetfulness

The impact on children
Nasal allergy symptoms may affect a child’s behavior or capacity for learning. This
is important because children tend to be in school during high allergy seasons.
Uncontrolled nasal allergy symptoms can be impairing to a child and may result in:
Irritability/tiredness
Limited activities
Missed days at school
Disturbed sleep
Daytime fatigue
Some children cannot adequately verbalize how they feel, so their nasal allergy
symptoms may go unnoticed. That’s why it’s important to pay close attention to your
child’s sniffles and sneezes.
