Spring is in the Air

The sky is blue, the grass is growing, and the air is fragrant with the smell of flowers. It's the kind of day that leaves most people feelings happy and energized. But if you suffer from seasonal allergies, a beautiful spring day can leave you feeling miserable. Your nose is itchy and congested, you can't stop sneezing and your eyes are red and watery.

Think you might have spring allergies? Hay fever is the classic form of seasonal allergies, occurring in response to various plant pollens in the air. Find out which types of pollens cause allergies during different times of the year, and how you might be able to avoid exposure to these pollens.
