Q: Which doctor should I consult for hay fever?
A: If you have reason to believe that you might suffer from hay fever or any other kind of allergy make it a point to consult an allergist. You could also talk to your family physician and he would refer you to a specialist if needed.
Q: How long does hay fever last?
A: The duration for which symptoms of hay fever last can vary greatly among different individuals. In some cases, the symptoms just flare up briefly for as little as a few hours upon exposure to a particular type of pollen and will resolve just as quickly as they flare up. In other cases, however, the symptoms could be present throughout the season.
