hay fever

Allergies occur when your body reacts to something that does not cause a problem for most people. It is an adverse reaction to something in our environment such as pollen or grass. Most people who have allergies are affected by them in the spring, when the trees are producing pollen, grass is growing, and being mowed. There is also more dust in the air. Symptoms of allergies include sneezing, a stuffed up nose, coughing, red eyes, and itchy skin.
