If your child has hay fever (allergic rhinitis), they "are also more likely to suffer from headaches, facial pain, and ear aches than children without these allergies," say researchers.
According to a press release issued by the American Academy of Otolaryngology — Head and Neck Surgery, results of a new study found:
Parents of children with allergic rhinitis reported to researchers that their children had an increased occurrence of headaches (55 percent vs. 19 percent), facial pain/pressure (29 percent vs. 3 percent), and ear pain/pressure (23 percent vs. 5 percent) compared with parents reports of children without hay fever. Furthermore, headache, facial pain/pressure, and ear pain/pressure were rated moderately or extremely bothersome by more than half of parents and older children who reported the symptoms.
