THE REASON
FOR YOUR

SNEEZIN'
4 sneaky signs your allergies are
actually something more BY EMILY FROST

1
2

YOUR SNOT ISN'T CLEAR. Your nose is always producing
mucus-24/7. Typically, mucus is clear, but if you notice that
instead it's white, yellow or green, your immune system is
fighting off an infection.
YOU'RE FEELING CHILLY. And not because of the
weather. When your body is fighting off an infection,
your temperature will spike. Chills are common when
you have a fever because your muscles are rapidly contracting
and relaxing to stay warm.

3

YOUR CHEEKS HURT. Sinus congestion is almost
guaranteed when you're battling seasonal allergies.
However, if sinus pressure extends from around your
eyes and temples down through your cheeks and even your
mouth, it's probably a sinus infection.

4

YOUR BREATH IS STINKY. Just like garlic, onions, dairy
and horseradish, an infection can cause smelly breath and
a foul taste in your mouth. If you notice this, along with
congestion, allergies aren't to blame.
