Hay Fever
5th April 2019
Hay fever is a common allergic reaction triggered by allergens that affects 1 in every 5 people at some point in their lives. These allergens can be mould spores, tree pollen, grasses and weeds, pet dander and dust mites. Some plants release pollen as early as January, and can continue as late as September. In hay fever, the body launches an immune response to these allergens as it identifies these as a potential threat. As part of the immune response, the chemical histamine is released which triggers the symptoms of hay fever.

More than a third of Britons now head abroad each winter to seek the sunshine.

At Dorset Private GP we can help you with your medical travel related queries. We cover Poole, Bournemouth, Christchurch, Dorchester and the whole of Dorset.
