Easy treatments for Hay Fever

• Shampoo your hair daily: it will get rid of pollen trapped there
• Gently blowing your nose gets rid of pollen: do so regularly
• Use sunglasses as they reduce the effect of pollen on the eye (conjuctivitis)
• Don't dry your clothes outside as pollen may settle on them
• Smearing vaseline on the inside of your nose works just as well as many official medicines
• Work out what pollens you are allergic to, and be particularly careful at times of year and places where they are prevalent. Allergy tests may be available, or keep a diary of your symptoms
• Enjoy walks in the day not the evening as pollen counts are highest in the evening
• Making love produces natural antihistamines and so helps unblock the nose!
