Pollen allergy to willow is common in Sweden and the season usually occurs in the spring. Willows and willows start to flower as early as March-April, depending on where in the country you are. The symptoms of willow pollen allergy can include runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes and nose, and possible asthmatic symptoms.
If you suspect that you suffer from an allergy to willow pollen, you can take a blood test to find out if you have high levels of IgE antibodies, which is an indication of allergy. It is important to seek medical attention and get a correct diagnosis and treatment in case of suspected pollen allergy.
It is important to note that an allergy test cannot detect or rule out an allergy 100%, the analysis can be used as a supplement to your possible symptoms and disease picture.
Information
