✨ New Year. Fewer Allergies. Better Breathing. ✨

Struggling with hayfever or year-round allergy symptoms? This January could be the start of lasting relief.

Immunotherapy (allergy desensitisation) treats the root cause of allergic rhinitis, not just the symptoms. By gradually retraining your immune system, it can significantly reduce sneezing, congestion, itchy eyes, poor sleep, and even help improve allergy-related asthma.

Consider the benefits:

✔ Long-term relief (not just temporary symptom control)
✔ Effective for pollen & house dust mite allergies
✔ Can improve nasal, eye & chest symptoms
✔ Reduces reliance on antihistamines and sprays
✔ Proven to reduce symptoms by up to 60–70%

Before starting immunotherapy, it’s important to identify which allergens are causing your symptoms. This is done through skin prick testing or specific IgE allergy blood tests.

👉 Learn more about our immunotherapy service here: https://lnscm.com/immunotherapy/

If allergies are holding you back, make 2026 the year you take control.

🌿 Struggling with Early Allergies? It Might Be Alder Tree Pollen! 🤧

This time of year, can mean more than just cold weather-it could also signal the start of tree pollen season. If you’re noticing classic hay fever symptoms like sneezing, congestion, or chest tightness early in the year, it may not just be a cold. In fact, it could be due to alder tree pollen, which often starts to pollinate in January, especially if we’ve had a milder December.

Did you know that 1 in 4 adults and nearly 1 in 3 children suffer from allergic rhinitis? This means a large portion of the population is prone to tree pollen-induced allergies, often accompanied by allergic asthma.

💡 Alder Pollen Alert: If you're experiencing hay fever symptoms this time of year, especially year after year, it could be linked to an alder tree allergy. And it doesn’t stop there-alder pollen can cross-react with other tree pollens, such as birch and hazel, meaning if you're allergic to one, you may react to others as well.

At London Nose and Sinus Clinic Medical we recommend:

✅If you’re struggling with tree pollen-induced hay fever, see an allergist to confirm if alder pollen is the culprit.

✅For those who already know their triggers, starting an intranasal steroid spray in early January can help prevent symptoms before they escalate in February, when alder pollen levels peak.

✅Many of our patients who’ve undergone tree pollen immunotherapy by Christmas time are already on their way to a smoother spring, with fewer symptoms and better asthma control.

👩‍⚕️ Key Insight: If you experience bothersome nose and eye symptoms due to tree pollen allergies, make an appointment with an allergist. Together, you can pinpoint what trees are causing your discomfort and plan ahead for the best treatment options. If treatments aren’t working as hoped in Spring 2026, immunotherapy might be a good option for you starting in October 2026, giving you 8–12 weeks to build up pollen tolerance before the 2027 season arrives.

📅 Prepare for Spring Now! Don’t wait until the pollen is in full swing. Breathe easier with the right treatment.

🎄 Festive Food & Allergy Safety This Christmas 🎄

Christmas is a time for celebration, indulgent food, and gathering with loved ones - but for the 6% of UK adults and 7.1% of children living with food allergies, the festive season can bring added risk and anxiety.

Many traditional Christmas favourites contain hidden allergens, including:

🥜 Nuts (stuffing, mince pies, chocolates, nut roasts)
🥚 Eggs (cakes, pastries, sauces, eggnog)
🥛 Dairy (butter, cream, cheese, chocolate, mash)
🌾 Gluten (stuffing, gravy, pastries, bread sauce)
🦐 Fish & shellfish
🌱 Soy (gravy mixes, processed foods, plant-based alternatives)
🥜 Peanuts (desserts, chocolates, Asian-inspired dishes)
🍊 Fruit allergens (mulled wine, cakes, mince pies)

(This list of foods is not exhaustive).


✨ Stay safe this festive season:

✅ Read labels carefully - seasonal foods often contain surprises
✅ Watch for cross-contamination in shared kitchens or buffets
✅ Bring safe alternatives to gatherings
✅ Ask hosts about ingredients
✅ Always carry prescribed adrenaline devices and use early if needed

A little planning can make all the difference - so everyone can enjoy the festive table with confidence and peace of mind.

🤧 House dust mite allergy and colds in wintertime.

If you notice blocked nose, sneezing, sinus pressure, tiredness or even worsening asthma outside the summer months, the culprit could be house dust mite allergy.

As we close our windows and turn up the heating, dust mite allergens rise sharply indoors. These allergens don’t just trigger typical hay fever symptoms - they can also:

🔸 Cause a chronic “head-cold” feeling
🔸 Lead to repeated, long-lasting colds
🔸 Weaken the nose’s antiviral defences
🔸 Increase the risk of viral and bacterial sinus infections
🔸 Aggravate asthma

This can create a vicious cycle of recurrent colds and worsening allergy.

What can you do?

✔️ Get allergy testing to confirm dust mite sensitisation
✔️ Reduce dust mite exposure at home (see excellent guidance from Allergy UK)
✔️ Speak to your GP about referral to an allergy specialist
✔️ Consider medical treatment, including safe and effective dust mite immunotherapy

Early help can make a huge difference.

💥 What is anaphylaxis - and why it matters 💥

Anaphylaxis is a rapid-onset, severe allergic reaction that can affect the whole body and if not treated without delay can be life-threatening.

At London Nose and Sinus Clinic Medical (LNSCM), we take all allergies seriously - especially the ones that can escalate fast.

It is important to understand:

✔️ What can trigger anaphylaxis
✔️ How quickly symptoms can appear
✔️ Key warning signs to watch for
✔️ Why immediate treatment with adrenaline matters
✔️ How we help patients understand their risks and stay prepared


✨ With advanced diagnostics, personalised allergy assessments, and ongoing specialist support, we help patients recognise severe allergy risks and manage them confidently - so they can live active, safe, healthy lives.

Learn more about anaphylaxis ➡️ https://lnscm.com/anaphylaxis/
