Are Sore Throat, Runny Nose And Red, Itchy Eyes Symptoms Of Hay Fever?

I have a sore, hoarse throat in general but the pain is also quite localised. It is on the right hand side of my throat and seems to be located in an area about the size of a ten pence piece overall. It seems to have started today and is accompanied by a sniffy nose and burning eyes. I don t think I get hayfever but i wondered whether I have allergies to particular pollens as this occasionally happens in the summer. It is as if I am about to have a bad cold but it doesn t usually get worse.
