Allergy symptoms in children should be taken seriously
Does your child wake up tired, irritable, or with cold-like symptoms? They may be allergic to dust mites, just like 20 to 30% of the population worldwide.
Dust mite allergy causes more than a simple case of runny nose and itchy eyes for your child. Uncomfortable symptoms can lead to poor-quality sleep, impacting children’s concentration at school and relationships with friends and family members.
Sensitivity can cause nighttime wheezing, trouble breathing and even severe asthma attacks. Studies have shown that exposure to dust mite allergens at an early age may lead to asthma later in childhood (Lodge et al.,vv Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology).
