Alergy Hayfever And Flu
Allergies, hay fever (allergic rhinitis), and influenza (flu) are conditions that affect the respiratory system but have different causes. Allergies and hay fever are immune responses to allergens like pollen, dust, or pet dander, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. The flu is a contagious respiratory illness caused by influenza viruses, presenting with fever, cough, sore throat, and body aches. Understanding the distinctions between these conditions is vital for effective treatment and prevention strategies.
