Dermatologist Mitchel Goldman, on a segment of “Your Health” on Fox 5 News, San Diego, discussed the issue of seasonal allergies and its effect on adults and children alike. What causes seasonal allergies? Each season different species of plants come into flower. These flowering plants produce pollen that can be carried in the air for miles. These pollens are the source of seasonal allergies. One of the most common symptoms (and one that is easily noticeable in children) is the itchy, watery eyes that often signal seasonal allergies. Pollen becomes trapped between the eye and eyelid when we blink, causing irritation. Children will rub their eyes and may even develop dark circles under their eyes, commonly referred to as “allergic shiners” or “allergy eyes”, caused by pigmentation. “They rub it,” says Dr. Goldman, “and also the blood vessels engorge. The blood vessels will lose some of their blood – blood contains iron – and you will actually have an iron stain.” To treat “allergic shiners”, in both children and adults, a topical …

This video—presented by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health—describes asthma, its signs and symptoms, and ways to manage the disease. Asthma is a chronic lung disease that inflames and narrows the airways, making it hard to breathe. The disease affects people of all ages, but it most often starts in childhood. People who have asthma may wheeze, cough, feel short of breath, or have chest tightness. Asthma can’t be cured, but it can be controlled. People who have asthma, or those who have children with asthma, can take an active role in their treatment. For example, they can work with their health care providers to create an asthma action plan. This plan gives guidance on taking medicines properly, avoiding asthma triggers, tracking levels of asthma control, responding to worsening symptoms, and seeking emergency care when needed. When asthma is well controlled, most people who have the disease are able to live normal, active lives. This video can also be seen at www.nhlbi.nih.gov
