Hayfever Nightmare!!?
I was wondering does anyone else have problems with hayfever and if so. any recomendations of whats best to use, my main problem is my eyes, their all blood shot and are so sore I have tried loads of different tablets but nothings helping, any other suggestions?
Answers:
Have you been to your doctor? Have you had the diagnosis confirmed? It could be that you have conjunctivitis, an infection in the eyes, that can happen from time to time.
If you have had it checked out, and if you have tried all the conventional stuff, do have a think about Complementary and Atlernative approaches - which can often make a huge difference.
Assuming it is hay fever, try locally produced honey - this contains small amounts of local pollen and works in a homoeopathic way to alleviate hay fever - tastes great too!
Other things that can help include:
- large doses of vitamin C (assuming you have no contra-indications or other health problems)
- Nettle tea - contains natural anti-histamines
- Euphrasia (eyebright herb) can help with inflammation in the eyes - usually used as a herb tincture
- Matricaria (chamomile) can be taken as a tincture or a tea if you like the taste - again can help as an anti-inflammatory.
There are also some homoeopathic nasal sprays that can help some people.
Hope you find some relief, but do make sure you have the right diagnosis, and see your doctor if you haven't been already.
