seasonal allergy and reddness in eyes for 1 week

55 year old male patient came to my office due to seasonal allergy. (though he told me he has allergic symptoms all year around: itchy eyes esp around medical canthus clogged nose.  right eye is worse than his left eye.  1 week ago when he came home he had to carry something heavy.  starting the night he has been feeling more itchy and veins in his right eyes are red and slightly distended.  He ran to his eye doctor and was told there was nothing they could do...

Other signs and sypmtoms

Chronic constipation, palpitation due to stress and anxiety, sweating too much (when exercising), thin body type, overall body temperature is warm.

Treatment

LU 8 +  LV 2 - HT 8 -   after these needles itchiness diminished about 80% and he was able to breath normally. I advise him to continue with acupuncture once a week for 4 weeks.

When our body is under stress our immune system gets weaker.
