Break out the BBQs and sun loungers - it's suddenly got warm! Unfortunately for many, with a sudden rise in temperature comes a sudden rise in pollen meaning the itchy, scratchy eyes and nose of hay fever become a problem. Do you suffer from hay fever? Check out our health pages for more information and contact us for advice on symptom relief: https://wyvernpharmacy.medicinechest.org.uk/index.php/health_advice/topic/articles_hay_fever/2693

With so many different tablets, nasal sprays and eye drops available it pays to get personalised information tailored to your symptoms. We can also advise on which are the most cost effective treatments to purchase, saving you money towards your summer treats.

As always over summer, make sure you use sun protection and spend some time in the shade. Sunburn increases the risk of skin cancer in later years and can be incredibly uncomfortable to boot! Keep well hydrated, especially if you suffer from other health problems like kidney or heart disease or if you take regular medication.
