Hayfever on the rise; In association with the NHS

Evening Chronicle (Newcastle, England), Sept 29, 2008

THE number of people suffering from hayfever has soared in recent years, figures suggest. GP diagnoses of allergic rhinitis, which includes allergies to pollen, animal fur and dust mites, rose by a third between 2001 and 2005. Symptoms include a persistently runny nose, sneezing, itching and sore eyes and can last all year round if the allergen is something like dust mite.
