Ragweed season brings nightmare for allergy sufferers
People allergic to ragweed are having a difficult time this season, as the wind-borne pollen can travel up to 200 kilometres. Doctors are urging people to seek medical attention at the first signs of allergy.
Ragweed pollen can cause a variety of symptoms, including runny nose, sneezing, itchy eyes, and congestion. In more severe cases, it can lead to asthma or anaphylaxis.
