Again, don't wait for your symptoms to get worse later in the day.

Take it first thing in the morning.

If you've got eye symptoms like runny eyes, you can get something called sodium chromoglycate drops from the pharmacist.

Just ask for hay fever drops and they will help with your runny eye symptoms as well.

The things that you just said there, you know, Vaseline or stuff like that around your nostrils helps trap pollen.

Sunglasses stops pollen getting into your eyes as well.

And then all the stuff that Monica is doing already by not putting a washing out.

When you come in from outside, change your clothing, have a shower, get rid of that pollen off your body.

Pets in particular, try and get rid of the pollen off them.

Hoover your pets.

Hoover your pets.

Now, one of the things I always get asked about, and in fact, just last week I had a request from a patient saying, I want the hay fever jab.

Have you heard of the hay fever jab?

You don't want it.

So it was something that was given ages ago and some private clinics still do it, but the NHS definitely do not give this hay fever jab out.

It's a steroid jab.

It's called Kenalog.

And it's...

It is supposed to just like stop your immune system in its tracks and so your hay fever symptoms.

And you only need it once and that's you done for the season.
