Warning over 'thunder fever' that affects people with breathing conditions after stormy weather batters UK
A "thunder fever" warning following recent storms in the UK has been issued for people with asthma and hay fever.The effect, which comes from high winds bringing more pollen into the air, could trigger asthma symptoms if the particles get into a person's airways.
That strong wind could have an effect on people with breathing conditions by introducing more pollen to the air. Last year, Allergy UK revealed the signs of "thunder fever" and suggested ways potential sufferers could keep their risk of experiencing it down.It said people with hay fever would feel typical symptoms such as sneezing, having a runny nose or suffering from itchy eyes.Asthma and Lung UK has also said that having a very tight chest, coughing and wheezing are among the symptoms, as are breathlessness and faster breathing.
