Seasonal Allergies and Itchy Skin: What You Need to Know

Seasonal Allergies and Itchy Skin in Glendale, Arizona

If seasonal allergies cause itchy skin, you’re not alone. Pollen, mold, and pet dander can trigger allergic contact dermatitis, leading to redness, rashes, swelling, or eczema flare-ups.

How Allergies Affect Your Skin

Allergens can irritate your skin, causing:

  • Itching and redness

  • Swelling or blisters

  • Eczema or rash

Seasonal food allergies may also worsen eczema during certain times of the year.

Relief and Self-Care Tips

  • Use a humidifier to combat dryness

  • Take cool baths with oatmeal or baking soda

  • Apply moisturizers or hydrocortisone creams

  • Avoid triggers like pollen or mold

  • Consider oral antihistamines, such as cetirizine or loratadine
