In Japan, the morbidity of Japanese cedar pollinosis (JCP) in children has increased. Medical and parental care are important for patients with JCP, but it is difficult to recognize and manage the symptoms of JCP in young children because identification depends on the parents. We investigated the symptoms of pollinosis and home care for children with JCP using a questionnaire.<br/> Parents of 40 children with JCP (age 2–12 years/median 8 years, 23 boys and 17 girls) filled out questionnaire. The peak ages of onset and diagnosis of JCP were 3 years old. The children had not only nasal symptoms but also symptoms such as epistaxis, skin and eye symptoms, coughs, and sniffles. Most of the parents noticed that going outside in sunny and windy days exacerbated JCP symptoms. About half of the children had sleep disorder. Many parents recognized that JCP symptoms disturbed their children's school work. To avoid pollen exposure, 80% of the parents paid attention to pollen information and 60% of them had their children wear masks.<br/> Appropriate diagnosis, treatment, and education for home care is important to improve the quality of life of children with JCP.
