About allergic rhinitis (hay fever)
Allergic rhinitis is an allergic inflammation of the nose that causes bouts of sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, itching of the nose, eyes, palate or throat, watery eyes and post-nasal drip. It may be seasonal (hay fever, triggered by pollen) or year-round (triggered by dust mites, mould, animal dander or cockroaches), and is often linked with asthma and eczema. Reducing exposure is the most effective step: wash bedding in hot water weekly, use dust-mite covers, keep pets out of the bedroom, keep windows closed in the pollen season, control damp and rinse the nose with saline. Doctors may prescribe antihistamines, nasal steroid sprays or allergy immunotherapy. See a doctor if symptoms disturb sleep, last more than two weeks, or come with wheezing, repeated sinus infections or ear problems.
