Show Notes
You may experience allergies throughout the year, but we often see them in the Spring.
Allergies increase inflammation, irritation, histamine responses, and will therefore impact your vestibular disorder.
We’re diving into why that is, supportive strategies, and tools & testing you might want to consider when treating allergies in addition to a vestibular disorder.
In this episode, we’ll dig into:
Why allergies increase vestibular condition symptoms
Tips for when you’re inside vs outside in the Spring
Tools and strategies for seasonal allergy symptoms
Testing that could be helpful for allergies and vestibular disorders
The best medications for seasonal allergies
Clearing up confusion with sinus pressure vs migraine
