How Urgent Care Can Help with Seasonal Allergies and Flu Symptoms

Spring has finally arrived, bringing with it warmer weather, longer days, and the vibrant colors of blooming flowers. However, along with the beauty of the season comes an all-too-familiar challenge: seasonal allergies. As trees release their pollen and flowers begin to bloom, allergy sufferers are already feeling the effects. On top of that, the flu season still lingers, leaving many wondering how to best handle these seasonal ailments. Fortunately, Next Door Urgent Care (NDUC) is here to help you manage both seasonal allergies and flu symptoms, providing quick, efficient, and compassionate care when you need it most.

Seasonal Allergies: Symptoms and Solutions

Seasonal allergies, often triggered by pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds, can wreak havoc on your daily life. Symptoms include sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, congestion, runny nose, coughing, and even wheezing or shortness of breath in some cases. These symptoms can make it difficult to enjoy the outdoor activities that come with springtime.

At NDUC, our healthcare providers are experienced in diagnosing and treating seasonal allergies.

Whether you’re dealing with mild discomfort or severe symptoms, we can offer relief with:

• Allergy Medications: Antihistamines, nasal sprays, and decongestants can be prescribed to alleviate symptoms quickly.

• Treatment for Asthma: If your allergies trigger asthma or breathing difficulties, we can offer appropriate treatments, including inhalers or nebulizer treatments.

• Advice on Environmental Control: Our providers will also offer practical tips to help reduce your exposure to allergens, such as keeping windows closed and using air purifiers.

If you’re struggling with the sudden onset of allergy symptoms, don’t wait for them to worsen. Our urgent care center offers quick, walk-in care, so you can get back to enjoying spring without the misery of seasonal allergies.

Flu Symptoms: What You Need to Know

While flu season typically peaks in the colder months, it can last well into the spring, especially with varying flu strains circulating. Flu symptoms often include fever, chills, body aches, fatigue, sore throat, cough, and congestion. If you begin experiencing these symptoms, it’s important to seek medical care promptly to avoid complications and to ensure a quicker recovery.

At NDUC, we are equipped to handle flu symptoms and provide the care you need, including:

• Flu Diagnosis: Our rapid flu tests allow us to quickly determine whether you have the flu, ensuring you receive the appropriate treatment.

• Flu Treatments: If diagnosed early, antiviral medications can reduce the severity and duration of the flu. We’ll prescribe the right treatment to help you feel better faster.

• Symptom Relief: If you’re experiencing body aches, fever, or sore throat, we can offer over-the-counter remedies and supportive care to ease your discomfort.

The flu can be especially hard on young children, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems. Seeking prompt care can help prevent more serious complications and speed up your recovery time.
