David Saunders discussing hayfever on national Breakfast show.
The year when you knows may start running in your eyes start burning that’s right hay fever season is upon us but don’t get too wound up about it is a range of options to bring some prevention and relief to tell us about them were joined out by david saunders from a hay fever pharmacy thanks for coming again welcome first of all what is it is it what’s the difference
Between that and some people who’ve got an allergy to some things therefore sneeze and have runny eyes well basically you’ve got the whole thing is cool denied us and we have season laurinaitis and perennial perennial means all around the year you know oh yeah seasonal is what we call hey thief and that just comes on basically in the springtime when you’ve got all
The pollens and the molds and stuff are all and the flowers are all out living is going to grow again and they all released their things to start reproducing an oil so that’s when you get the hay fever you can just develop it you cannot have it and then have it it’s not something you’re born with there is a genetic connection so if your parents have got it then
It’s most likely that you’re going to get it as well but issue can just suddenly develop it and find something the bodies or something says no don’t like you and that’s oh and it’s obviously not going to get we could go running through a field of the hay or where the pollens are going to be but to an extent you can’t avoid getting it but how can you sort of lessen
The effects of it a little bit way our education will get into it i say all right basically yeah there’s two ways of treating hay fever one has just avoid the allergen if the elegance not there doesn’t touch the skin then you won’t have the reaction and it’s see reaction that everybody notices not the allergens floatin around they only see the result of the allergen
Touching the skin and the follow-on as the inflammatory response which gives all that congestion and mucus and it’s shing and also it’s not just up your nose in any mouth and around your eyes it’s eally touching any parties good yeah but you don’t notice it so much dermatitis is a sort of form of hay fever if you want to put it that way but it’s it’s to do with it
Inflammatory response so whatever triggers an inflammatory response all created but for hay fever specially it’s in the air borne allergens they get up your nose touch your eyes and that’s when they react and that’s when you get all the side effects i don’t have hay fever but i remember a few years ago seeing we discussed this briefly some miracle glasses that was
What were they were they deliver with they did work and in the fact that if you can keep the elledge and away from your skin then you don’t have the reaction so the whole idea of them was to lock in so that you couldn’t actually get the allergen into your eyes likewise i said to you before the am used to make little filters that you stack up you’re not all good
Looks for picking up the later yeah yeah real well and there’s a couple things up in it or you said a look at the medicines what’s a variety here and use water basically most people start off using with the tablet so they use the things like tell fast the zyrtec they’re the ones i find that work the best you start with those yup and then if they don’t work well
They do work you know what actually happens is you get what’s called elegant overload yes so it’s like a dam and the drugs actually build up a certain level but because there’s so much elegent around it overflows yep and so that’s when you need to start bringing in other things yeah so you start bringing in your nasal spray okay so we’ve got the steroid one stairs
When this is what so cool looks like nice yeah well leather stone which is nanny has to mean one which works really really well not even using antihistamines can they basically yeah the only 1p we shouldn’t do a pregnant woman but there’s the latest research out isn’t our son to show that they can actually start to use these things but it’s you know you got to work
On this risk benefit thing ok so if someone’s really suffering badly and then by all means use it for two or three days just keep yourself throw it and then trying to rid yourself of the allergen that’s that’s usually the best thing to try and don’t like david saunders from the hopi of the pharmacy thanks for coming up no good news for me unfortunately damon is a
Pregnant hay fever sufferers right say it go get those glasses and the answers about the night watch right we’re going traveling after the break to see how you can follow julia roberts journey of self-discovery on
