Sneezing: frequent or repetitive sneezing due to the presence of allergens.
Runny or stuffy nose: If you constantly have a blocked or runny nose and itchy, watery eyes when you are exposed to dust.
Itchy or watery eyes: if you feel itchiness or redness in your eyes while coming in contact with dust or staying in a dusty environment.
Scratchy throat or cough: If you constantly have an itchy throat or cough, it may be caused by exposure to dust or spending time in a dusty environment.
Skin rash or itchiness: if you come in contact with dust, your skin might show allergic reactions, such as rashes or hives.
If you are experiencing some of these symptoms, it's possible you have a dust mite allergy. However, it's always best to consult with an allergist or doctor to diagnose your problem.
