Hay fever, or kafunsho, occurs when your immune system overreacts to these tiny particles. A visit to the doctor will get you a pocketful of antihistamines that block the histamine receptors and thus suppress our allergic reactions. However, heavy side effects such as drowsiness are common and for once, dropping off in the classroom may be excusable.
