Allergic Rhinitis, commonly known as Hay Fever is a form of nasal allergy. It is characterized with several symptoms such as a copious sneezing, puffy, watery, itchy eyes, stuffy nose and abnormal mucus production with some degree of sinus headache.

Allergic rhinitis is caused by the body's allergic reaction to both indoor and outdoor airborne irritants such as dust, pollens, dust mites and pet dander. Usually, hay fever only lasts for a short period if the allergens are removed from the person's living environment.

In such cases, no medication is needed as the person will recover very quickly on his own. Around 25% of Americans suffer from this condition annually, particularly during hay fever seasons.
