seasonal allergy

Springtime sneezing condition

Seasonal allergy is an allergic reaction triggered by airborne substances that appear at particular times of year—typically pollen from trees, grasses, or weeds.

Symptoms include sneezing, itchy eyes, and congestion.

Spring and fall are the worst seasons for most sufferers: My seasonal allergies are killing me right now.

Also called hay fever.
