Almost half of all Brits suffer hay fever symptoms.

Incoming hay fever season could see many UK residents suffer Allergy sufferers in the UK could be in for a rude spring awakening as an incoming pollen bomb could wreak havoc on their sinuses. With roughly 49% of all Brits reporting hay fever symptoms, millions will be affected by the upcoming pollen season. And now experts have warned that hay fever symptoms and suffering will increase as pollen levels grow daily this spring.

When an allergen enters your system, the immune system overreacts and prompts the release of histamine, causing symptoms like sneezing, itchy eyes, and wheezing.’ Those who suffer from hay fever should make sure their skin is moisturised to prevent any breakout of eczema, and take antihistamines if approved by your doctor. Unfortunately, there is no cure for hay fever, which causes sneezing, coughing, a runny nose, red, itchy eyes, earaches and headaches, so you can only manage the symptoms.
