Heavy head cold, running nose and blocked ears. I know the pollen count is high(?) currently but I thought I just had a cold that's been going round. Is it hayfever? A cataids version? What's best to treat it?
Never had hayfever in my life.
A&E. Go now. Run.
Raw onion.
Seriously- get a big white one, man up and get stuck in like it's an apple. If you get more than halfway you are doing well.
You won't have hayfever for the rest of the day. Win 🙂
Run? I'll be brown bread before I reach there
I seem to be suffering already.
Try the generic remedies (loratine or certrazine hcl) available cheap from Boots or the supermarkets. If they don't work then Benadryl (acrivastine) but it's pricier.
Tree pollen season already.
Do your eyes itch, esp the inner corners?
*Is this really me, posting on a HORA thread? ICBI*
Yeah, now you mention it i've been getting a bit 'dribbly' after my commute.
Tree polllen... been affecting me since late Jan
What works for me is to rinse my nose. My suffering season starts in January.
Poor ickle hora. Tree pollen most likely, I suffer a bit, I also work with trees, well I say with, more against really.
+1 certirizine or loratadine (sp?) - or Beconase but that takes a few days to build effectiveness
yerp. mine kicked in yesterday about 1500.
Tues in the woods in Calderdale, yesterday the woods of Grizede. In the end both a certirizine and a loratadine cheap supermarket branded anti did it. I've dried up.
Pollution can act as an adjuvant to stimulate hay-fever, everyone driving diesels these days, im not surprised
Talking to a friend yesterday, she has it, as does her son, aged 8. Is it really affecting younger people now?
Mines started. But only the eyes. I've had bad summer hayfever for nearly 20 years. But in the last few years I also get a short spring bout as well.
Chromium-something or other eye drops from Boots does the trick
