Hay fever, or allergic rhinitis, occurs when the immune system reacts to pollen from trees, grasses, or weeds, leading to nasal and respiratory symptoms.
Symptoms:
- Sneezing, nasal congestion, and runny nose
- Itchy or watery eyes
- Coughing and throat irritation
- Fatigue
Treatment:
- Antihistamines, decongestants, and nasal sprays can help alleviate symptoms.
- Allergy shots (immunotherapy) may be used for long-term relief.
- Avoiding allergens, such as staying indoors during peak pollen seasons, is helpful.
