The Christmas tree can throw a spanner in the works if you suffer from hay fever. The thing is: hay fever symptoms are caused by flying pollen. In spring, the Christmas trees are still in the open air. They also collect pollen from other plants. As soon as you take the tree inside, the needles dry out and the pollen is released. So you’ve accidentally brought hay fever inside!
The other reason may be that you are allergic to mold. Fungi naturally develop in a Christmas tree. This sounds super gross, but it’s perfectly normal. Fungi occur naturally and can cause many complaints. Especially if you have asthma, bronchitis, or a mold allergy, you will suffer from this.
