A member asked:
Is it possible to develop allergies later in life? if so what are to most common that cause runny nose and sneezing?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Allergies: If you mean later in life at 24, yes and you can develop allergies to outdoor pollen, pets, dust mites and mold. Later in life as in their 50s, people can develop vasomotor rhinitis, which is non allergic and resembles allergies in its symptoms.

Yes: Pets, house dust mites, molds, cockroach etc are the more common ones but pollen can also play a part.
