Allergies: Teenagers needing hospital treatment up 65% in five years The number of children who received hospital treatment for allergies has increased by 65% across England in the past five years, figures have revealed.
In 2013-14, 2,873 teenagers sought treatment whereas in 2017-18 it was 4,743, data from NHS Digital shows.
