We need to have an honest conversation about workplace fragrances.

That coworker's favorite perfume or aftershave might smell amazing to them, but for people with scent sensitivities, it can trigger debilitating headaches, dizziness, nausea, watery eyes, and even hives. This isn't about being "difficult" or "oversensitive"—it's about recognizing that fragrance molecules linger in the air, cling to fabrics, and accumulate in poorly ventilated spaces, making work genuinely impossible for some people.

The solution is simpler than you think: fragrance-free workplace policies. Most people are understanding and willing to adjust once they realize their favorite scent is affecting their colleagues' health and productivity. It's not about taking away personal expression—it's about creating an inclusive, accessible environment where everyone can breathe comfortably.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we help identify fragrance sensitivities and provide strategies for navigating shared spaces. Compassion costs nothing but means everything.

Let's talk about something disgusting but important: your office carpet is basically a five-star resort for dust mites.

These microscopic creatures feast on dead skin cells and thrive in humidity—both of which your workplace has in abundance. They're hiding in carpets, upholstered chairs, cubicle walls, and that "comfy" furniture everyone loves, triggering constant sneezing, itchy eyes, congestion, and that unbearable nose-rubbing feeling that makes meetings feel impossible.

You can't see dust mites, but you're definitely feeling their impact. The solution? Routine deep cleaning, HEPA-filtered air purifiers, and proper ventilation can trap these microscopic freeloaders and give you back the comfort you deserve. If symptoms persist despite these changes, it's time to get tested.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we identify your specific triggers and create treatment plans that actually work. Your workspace should support your success, not sabotage it.

Creating a healthier workplace doesn't require a complete overhaul—it just requires awareness, communication, and collective action.

If you notice musty smells, visible dust accumulation, or heavy fragrances affecting you or your coworkers, it's time to speak up. Start the conversation respectfully with your manager or HR department. Most employers want healthy, productive employees and are willing to make reasonable accommodations when they understand the impact.

Lead by example: keep your workspace clean, skip the perfume or cologne, choose unscented cleaning products, and demonstrate that small changes create big improvements. Support your coworkers who struggle with allergies and sensitivities—their challenges might not be visible, but they're real and they're affecting their ability to work effectively. Sometimes, simply suggesting that allergy testing helped you find relief can inspire others to seek answers for their own symptoms.

A healthier workplace isn't about demanding perfection—it's about people caring enough to make thoughtful choices. At Corpus Christi Allergy, we support workplace wellness initiatives and provide resources for creating allergy-friendly environments.

November is National Healthy Skin Month—and for many allergy sufferers, skin health is about more than just looking good. It's about comfort, relief, and quality of life.

Eczema (atopic dermatitis) is one of the most common allergic skin conditions, causing dry, itchy, inflamed skin that can be painful and frustrating to manage. It often occurs alongside other allergic conditions like asthma, hay fever, and food allergies—a connection known as the "atopic march."

Environmental allergens, fragrances, harsh soaps, and even certain fabrics can trigger flare-ups. The good news? Understanding your specific triggers through allergy testing can help you develop a personalized skincare and treatment plan that actually works.

If you're dealing with persistent rashes, itching, or skin reactions, it's time to find answers.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we help identify the root causes of your skin issues—whether it's contact dermatitis from workplace chemicals, eczema triggered by allergens, or other sensitivities—and create effective treatment strategies.
Your skin deserves care that goes beyond the surface. Let's get to the root of the problem together.

If you're constantly exhausted even after coffee, can't stop sneezing or rubbing your nose, experiencing brain fog that makes focusing impossible, getting unexplained headaches, or dealing with a stuffy nose that magically clears when you leave work—listen carefully.

You're not "just tired." You're not imagining things. You're not being dramatic. You're reacting to hidden workplace allergens that are making you genuinely sick. Dust mites in carpets and furniture, mold in HVAC systems, chemical cleaners, pet dander on coworkers' clothing, and personal fragrances are invisible irritants stealing your comfort, energy, and productivity.

These symptoms are real, they're valid, and they deserve to be taken seriously. Too many people suffer silently, thinking they just need to "push through" or that everyone feels this way at work. But feeling miserable isn't normal, and it's not something you have to accept.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we validate your experience and help you pinpoint exactly what's triggering your symptoms through comprehensive testing. Then we create a personalized treatment plan that gives you your life back. Stop suffering. Start healing.

Let's talk about the real cost of workplace allergens: your productivity, energy, and mental clarity.

When you're constantly battling itchy eyes, sinus pressure, brain fog, or difficulty breathing, focusing on your work becomes nearly impossible. These symptoms drain your energy, slow your thinking, and turn simple tasks into exhausting ordeals. The frustrating part? Most people mistake allergy symptoms for colds, stress, or just "being tired"—never realizing their office environment is stealing their performance and wellbeing.

Untreated allergies lead to increased absenteeism, decreased job satisfaction, and a constant feeling of just trying to survive the day instead of thriving. In some cases, ongoing allergen exposure can even contribute to more serious respiratory issues. But tackling workplace allergens head-on leads to clearer thinking, better moods, improved focus, and fewer "I just can't today" moments.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we identify your specific triggers and create treatment plans that give you back your energy and mental sharpness. You're meant to excel, not just survive.

November is COPD Awareness Month—a time to raise awareness about Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, a serious lung condition affecting millions of Americans.

While COPD and allergies are different conditions, they often coexist. Many people with allergies or asthma are at higher risk for developing COPD, especially if they smoke or have been exposed to environmental irritants over time. Symptoms like chronic cough, shortness of breath, and wheezing shouldn't be ignored.

If you're experiencing persistent respiratory symptoms, it's important to get evaluated. Early detection and proper management can significantly improve quality of life.

At Corpus Christi Allergy, we work closely with patients to understand their respiratory health and create comprehensive treatment plans.

Take a deep breath—literally. Your lungs matter, and so does your health.

🫁 If you're concerned about respiratory symptoms, schedule a consultation with us.
