Complications
By Mayo Clinic staffOther health problems that often occur along with hay fever include:
- Asthma. If you have asthma, you may have signs and symptoms such as difficulty breathing, shortness of breath, a tight feeling in the chest, coughing and wheezing.
- Eczema. Also called dermatitis, this condition causes swollen, red or itchy skin.
- Sinusitis. Prolonged sinus congestion due to hay fever may increase your susceptibility to sinusitis — an infection or inflammation of the membrane that lines the sinuses.
- Ear infection. In children, hay fever often is a factor in middle ear infection (otitis media).
