Allergic rhinitis: When the immune system overreacts to allergens in the air, allergic rhinitis, a type of nasal inflammation, results. Runny or stuffy nose, sneezing, red, itchy, and watery eyes, as well as swelling around the eyes, are signs and symptoms of this condition. Dust mites, pollen, spores, animal skin, urine, and saliva are among the most common airborne allergens that cause rhinitis.

Urticaria: Hives, or urticaria, are sudden outbreaks of swollen, pale red bumps or plaques (wheals) on the skin that can occur as a result of an immune system reaction to certain allergens or for unknown causes. The skin's surface may develop welts that are itchy, raised, red, or skin-coloured.

Premenstrual syndrome (PMS): It is a condition in which a group of symptoms occurs between ovulation and menstruation. Symptoms of PMS include mood swings, fatigue, food cravings, breast tenderness, and irritability.

Eczema: It is a condition in which skin patches become inflamed, itchy, cracked and rough. Symptoms include a rash on the arms and behind the knees. Eczema can be triggered by various factors like foods, drinks, skin products, soaps, chemicals, detergents, make-up products, chlorinated pools, and stress.
