Winter allergies
My hay fever is mostly effected during the winter months. What would be causing this? I don’t go outside because of my illness but I get really itchy eyes and nose, it’s driving me crazy.

Re: Winter allergies
Hi pixel
Do you get symptoms all year round? Have you considered house dust mites as the culprit? There is some information on Allergy UK about them which might be useful.
Please do make sure you are appropriately treated, ask you GP if you need to escalate your treatment.

Re: Winter allergies
in addition to my colleague's recommendations: Are you better indoors or outdoors?
Do you react to moulds? Have you tried regular non drowsy anithistamine tablets and nasal steroid sprays? This might help control your symptoms and improve your quality of life
