The hay fever is probably the best known and most extended allergy in Germany. The German Allergy and Asthma Federation estimates that 16-20% of Germans suffer from hay fever. Basically there are more men than women. Causes are the (usually) seasonal complaints from sensitivity to the protein components of certain pollen. The allergic reaction manifests itself, inter alia, in colds, conjunctivitis eyes.

Hay fever can tend to be worse, so may the number of triggering substances increase, there are years of hay fever in the respiratory tract and asthma impact outbreak favour. In order to have a therapy to decide the complaints in detail be considered. In any case, a doctor is essential.

For shorter complaints can already well nasal sprays help, and there are prescription medicine vapors allergic reactions. Since a few years also have the opportunity to get online via pollen flight.

If the complaints, however, very strong, a doctor may prescribe certain drugs - there are a variety of prescription allergy means that the individual complaints adjust image. Not all are satisfactory, and so far, not all complaints are fully treated. In the case of early detection, it is possible to the outbreak of hay fever to delay or even can be prohibited.

For up to 70 percent of Geplagten offers Desensibilisierungs therapy, also called Hyposensibilisierung, a possible solution. Usually started in the autumn, if the patient is not already plagued by Allergieschüben. Simply put, the immune system is slowly increasing doses of the allergen used so that the immune system reduced his answer or give up.

Who does not know it, you sit all day at his desk and the pain in the back is hourly. This is not only the case with me, because as I have recently gelsen, back pain for the Germans statistically the second reason for a visit to a doctor. Around 70% of German citizens suffer at least once a year under the civilization disease.

Often the complaints result from damage to farming, such a poor attitude of the spine when sitting at work or in front of the TV etc. Because back pain is a symptom and not the disease itself, can be quite different causes are possible.

Causes
In most cases, the complaints orthopedic underlying causes often go on farming damage. These causes can not prove - approximately 90% of all chronic back pain are considered “non-specific”, meaning it is not possible to locate their causes. Among the remaining 10% are orthopedic complaints such as osteoporosis, disc incidents and tumors of the spinal counted. Back pain can also be internal, organic causes. Coat ribs inflammation, coronary heart disease and pancreatic inflammation, pulmonary and renal pelvic inflammation - among others - sensitive pain in the spine sphere. Quite apart from the fact that in the first two cases, back pain often with great mental strain, may psychosomatic causes of the complaints also are based. Depression, for example, can express in physical pain. In the last few years has often been observed that psychotherapy treatments to alleviate chronic back pain can contribute.

Therapy
Usually, a symptomatic therapy (physiotherapy, painkillers, preventive exercises), particularly since most are not specifically back pain and their causes are not resolved. In addition, Osteopathic, autogenic training, acupuncture, yoga and massages from the most affected as pain is felt. In the case of clear or orthopedic causes can also intervened surgically, to take the most cases, as I said, not because the pain is not specific.

Prevention
Prevention is particularly balusters behavior in everyday life called: The lifting heavy loads, just keeping the seats, etc. In addition, compensation seated in sports activities and back exercises recommended.
