As spring blooms across the Tennessee Valley, many residents face a relentless battle against seasonal allergies. In a recent interview with WHNT News 19, Dr. Joseph Forester of AllerVie Health explained how the region’s high pollen counts fuel an “internal war” within allergy sufferers, leading to intensified symptoms like congestion, sneezing, and itchy eyes. Dr. Forester emphasized that this year’s season is particularly challenging due to the combination of early warm temperatures and persistent plant growth.

Dr. Forester also shared valuable treatment options for those struggling with symptoms, encouraging early intervention and personalized care plans. He stressed the importance of consulting with allergy specialists to explore solutions like immunotherapy, which can offer long-term relief beyond over-the-counter medications. At AllerVie Health, we are proud to support our Tennessee Valley communities with expert care and innovative treatments to help our patients breathe easier this spring and beyond.
