A free medical camp organised by the District Health Office Islamabad at the G-6 Abpara community centre provided diagnosis and treatment for pollen allergy, delivering timely medical support and public guidance to local residents.
Under the supervision of specialist doctors and trained medical staff, attendees received allergy tests, free medicines and medical counselling so they could recognise pollen allergy symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, itchy or watering eyes and breathing difficulty, and take appropriate measures.
Over 700 citizens were examined during the camp and were given necessary care and advice tailored to their symptoms. The initiative aimed to improve early detection of pollen allergy and reduce avoidable complications through prompt treatment and patient education.
District Health Officer Islamabad Dr Syeda Rashida Batool said the office is continuing efforts to raise awareness about seasonal allergies and to ensure citizens have access to quality health services. She urged people to adopt precautions during pollen season, avoid unnecessary outdoor exposure, wear masks, protect their eyes and seek immediate medical attention if symptoms appear.
Attendees expressed appreciation for the free services and awareness activities, thanking the Ministry of National Health and the District Health Office Islamabad for organising the camp and supporting community health during the pollen season.
