Masks have become a part of people's life as daily necessities

In general, masks are often used for epidemic prevention. In Japan, people wear masks in many cases to avoid infecting others with cold or infectious diseases. On the other hand, in Japan, many people will wear masks in public places even if they do not have physical discomfort. One reason is hay fever. About 30% of Japanese suffer from this disease.

Pollinosis refers to the allergic reaction that occurs after the pollen of fir, cypress and other trees enters the human body, resulting in sneezing, runny nose and other symptoms. Especially in spring and autumn, there is a lot of pollen in the air. Many Japanese will sneeze, runny nose and other symptoms in these seasons. Wearing masks can help alleviate these symptoms, so Japanese with hay fever have the habit of wearing masks at school, at work and when going out.

People with hay fever may have allergic reactions when inhaling pollen, which may lead to sneezing, runny nose and other symptoms. Wearing a mask can help prevent this symptom.
