We usually talk about pollen allergy in spring, but it also appears at the end of January, February and beginning of March, when pollen concentrations are highest. For this reason, it is very important not to confuse the symptoms with a cold.
Allergy symptoms are:
Itchy eyes and nose, sneezing, clear, runny mucus, and lasts four to six weeks.
Cold symptoms are:
Fever, general malaise, throat irritation, nasal congestion and lasts between five to six days, much less than an allergy.
It is important to differentiate between them since the treatment is not the same, and we would not improve in either case.
