What is Hay Fever?

Hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis, is an allergic reaction to pollen from trees, grasses, and weeds. It commonly occurs during certain times of the year when these plants release their tiny pollen particles into the air. The symptoms of hay fever can vary in severity and may include:

Sneezing: Frequent and repeated sneezing is a common symptom of hay fever. It is often triggered by exposure to airborne allergens like pollen.

Runny or Stuffy Nose: Hay fever can cause nasal congestion or a runny nose. This can be accompanied by an itchy or irritated feeling in the nose.

Itchy or Watery Eyes: Irritation of the eyes, accompanied by itching and watering, is a common hay fever symptom. The eyes may also become red and swollen.

Itchy Throat or Ears: Some individuals with hay fever may experience itching in the throat or ears.

Fatigue: The constant discomfort and disrupted sleep due to symptoms can lead to fatigue and a general feeling of being unwell.

Coughing: A persistent cough may develop as a result of postnasal drip, where mucus drips down the back of the throat.

Hay fever symptoms can significantly impact daily life, affecting work, school, and overall well-being. It’s important to note that hay fever is different from a viral infection like the common cold, as it is caused by an allergic reaction rather than a viral infection.

Treatment for hay fever often involves managing symptoms through antihistamines, nasal corticosteroids, decongestants, and other over-the-counter or prescription medications. In severe cases, allergen immunotherapy (allergy shots) may be recommended to desensitise the individual to specific allergens over time.
