Got a meet coming up soon, and at the moment I can't breath properly :shock: and my eyes look like the red balls on a snooker table.
I have a feeling that this won't bother them, but I would like to look half decent! :P
Any ideas on how to get rid of it? it really is driving me bananas! And i don't want to spend the meet sneezing and rubbing my eyes!
Any ideas welcome xx
Will pop to the chemist in the morning xxx
cucumber slices or used cooled chamomile teabags on your eyes
Any idea what triggered it? Maybe some fresh cut flowers in the house? Or a neighbour's new pet?
Years ago my summer hayfever was still annoying me in October - very unusual. I heard that mattresses hold a lot of dust so I hoovered the mattress both sides as well as the base. I fetched out about 3 inches deep of the finest dust you can imagine into the Dyson. And the symptoms had gone by the next day.
This time of year grass is unlikely to be a problem - it has to be flowering for you to get the symptoms. There is very little flowering now, and I've not heard of people being allergic to cherry blossom.
It's more likely to be animal dander, dust or mould. Even someone who has had animals for years can suddenly become allergic to their pets.
If it is worse at a particular time of day or after a particular activity that would give a clue as to the cause.
Even all year rhinitis is caused by one or more triggers. It can be a challenge to identify them, and may be impossible to eradicate them but it's worth a go.
