Spanish term or phrase: Alergia leve gramíneas
From the beginning of the same medical report as my last question (about a footballer's injury).

I can't decide if this is a really stupid question or not, so I'll let you be the judge of that!

I'm currently using mild hay fever, but considering there's only grass on the pitch and all that, maybe I should just use mild grass allergy?

Dunno, aren't grass allergies and hay fever the same thing? Or would I be wrong to translate this as hay fever here? I haven't found any real evidence to suggest that "alergia gramíneas" would be "hay fever" (normally "alergia al polen" or "fiebre del heno"), but it seems logical to me.

What say you?

Asker: Thanks, Wendy — due to the fact that there's no other answers, you've just confirmed my suspicions of it being a stupid question! I just felt I was being too literal with "mild grass allergy" (it sounds quite limp to me; or maybe I've worked too long on the trot?) Appreciate you taking the time :)
