What is Hay Fever and how do I help reduce the effects?
Hay fever is an allergic reaction to pollen, typically when it comes into contact with your mouth, nose, eyes and throat.
Symptoms typically include:
•Sneezing
•Blocked nose or snotty nose
•Itchy eyes, ears or throat
•Swollen and watery eyes
•Sinus pressure or headaches
•Feeling tired
Conditions such as asthma and eczema can also flare up and get worse when hay fever season hits, which can typically be present any time between March and October.
Helpful Tips:
•Take an antihistamine and ensure you’re taking it every day, so you build up that immunity.
•Keep your windows closed during peak Hay Fever Season
•Use eye drops and nasal spray to help ease some of your symptoms
