Who you’ll see in Wokingham
About hay fever
A GP in Wokingham reviews your symptoms and triggers, by video or in clinic, to confirm whether it's genuinely hay fever. The GP distinguishes it from a cold, sinus infection or non-allergic rhinitis, and can step up treatment if over-the-counter antihistamines haven't worked. Stronger options — steroid nasal sprays, eye drops or a short oral course — are arranged with your pharmacy. See our national page at /conditions/hay-fever/ for more.
About hay fever
Hay fever is an allergic reaction to pollen, causing inflammation in the nose, eyes, throat and sinuses. Common symptoms include sneezing, a runny or blocked nose, itchy and watery eyes, and an itchy throat or ears, usually worse when pollen counts are high. Symptoms can range from mild and seasonal to significant enough to disrupt sleep, work or school.
