Summer rain showers help break the heat, but there’s also a downside. They help mold grow. For summer allergy sufferers, this year is very uncomfortable. The mold pollen count has soared.

Itchy eyes, congestion and runny noses are common allergy symptoms. Allergy and Asthma Associates in Northwest Austin are seeing more and more patients complaining of symptoms that just aren’t going away.

“People who get recurrent sinus infections because they’re predisposed by allergies, we see that a lot,” said Dr. Doug Barstow with Allergy and Asthma Associates. “They can interrupt your days at work. They cause you not to sleep at night. They can cause you to miss days at work, days at school. They really can result in very big lifestyle changes.”
