Is hay fever an allergy?

Yes, re! It is just a fancy name for dust and pollen allergy, so don't stress too much about it. Just keep your windows closed during early mornings and wash your face when you come from outside. It will pass, chill out!

Indeed, hay fever is what doctors call allergic rhinitis. It has nothing to do with actual 'fever' or 'hay', it is just your immune system overreacting to pollen, dust mites, or pet dander. Keep your room clean and use a wet cloth for dusting to avoid triggering it.

It is an allergy, yes. My Apple Watch actually showed my sleep quality dropped last week because of my night-time congestion from pollen. I tracked my symptoms on my health app and realized it peaks whenever the AQI goes bad, so wearing a mask outside really helps.

Yes, it is an allergy, and please don't ignore it like I did. I thought it was just a normal change-of-weather cold and kept ignoring the wheezing until it turned into a severe sinus infection. Get a doctor's advice early before it makes your life miserable.

Yes, it is a very annoying allergy. Honestly, it used to make me feel so exhausted and frustrated because people around me thought I was just making a big deal out of a simple cold. It is mentally draining when you can't breathe properly, so please take care of yourself.
