Disease/Condition Glossary
Allergies: Allergies are the reaction of the immune system to a foreign material that is usually not harmful to the body. These foreign substances are referred to as 'allergens.' Allergic reactions differ from person to person. Some people may be allergic to certain foods or suffer from seasonal allergies such as hay fever. On the other hand, others may be allergic to pollen or pet dander.
Hay fever: Hay fever/allergic rhinitis is an allergic reaction to pollen, typically when it comes into contact with the mouth, nose, eyes and throat. Hay fever symptoms include sneezing and coughing, a runny or blocked nose, itchy, red or watery eyes, itchy throat, mouth, nose and ears, loss of smell, pain around the temples and forehead, headache, earache and feeling tired.
Nonallergic rhinitis: Nonallergic rhinitis is a condition that occurs when the nasal tissues become irritated (swollen). It is also known as vasomotor rhinitis. Symptoms of nonallergic rhinitis include a blocked nose, a runny nose, sneezing, discomfort or mild irritation in and around the nose and a reduced sense of smell.
