If you can feel a winter cold coming on, there's a chance your Christmas tree could be the culprit.
Christmas is one of the best times of the year for many people, but it's also prime time to fall ill.
And it turns out that one of the most popular Christmas symbols could be the very thing making you unwell. Dubbed 'Christmas Tree Syndrome', it causes hayfever-like symptoms including itchy nose, watery eyes, wheezing, coughing, chest pains, lethargy and insomnia - and even leads to pneumonia in rare serious cases.
Even just being in the proximity of a Christmas tree may be enough to bring the symptoms on, with many people unaware that it's causing an allergic reaction. That's according to Prevalin Allergy, with other researchers noting that sufferers' breathing problems were getting worse in the run-up to Christmas Day - hence the name of the syndrome.
