Can spring weather affect your health if you don't have allergies?

My pts sure say so: Certainly the sound of sneezing in parking lots and shopping malls each spring reminds us that about 40% of folks have seasonal pollen allergies. But weather events in spring can affect those without allergies. Sinuses will ache with barometric pressure drops from weather fronts; wind kicks up dust, pollen and particles that irritate those with sensitive nasal and ocular mucous membranes.
