The pollen count is very high at the moment, and many of you are coming into the clinic suffering with hayfever. We hope you find some welcome relief with this advise from our allergy specialist, Gosia Gray.
Spring has come much earlier this year than expected,
bringing with it many sensitivities and allergies to pollen of trees, shrubs,
flowers, grasses and fungal spores. As
the blossom appears, hay fever begins, increasing through spring and summer.
The symptoms of hay fever may vary from year to year; it all depends on the
weather and pollen count.
Here are some suggestions for homoeopathic remedies for some
of the common symptoms of hay fever. If you are experiencing lots of sneezing
with burning watery nasal discharges and itching eyes, take Allium Cepa 6c. With lots of sneezing
and sinus pain and itchy throat, take Sabadilla
6c. For sneezing with burning red eyes, swollen lids and headache, take Euprasia 6. Finally, for itching of the
roof of the mouth, throat and ears, with sneezing, take Arundo 6. The dose for all
these remedies is 1 tablet 4 times a day.
