Sometimes, giving a girl flowers is not the best thing especially if they have hay fever 🌺
Did you know that nearly 1 in 5 Australians suffer from hay fever at some point in their lives. It is more common if there is a family history of allergies, especially asthma or eczema. Symptoms include sneezing, runny nose or itchy eyes.
Treatment usually takes the form of anti-histamine tablets that can be brought from the chemist. However always seek advice from your doctor if you are concerned.
Join me in part 3 of the series ‘A Day in the Life of a General Practitioner’. In this episode I give you a VIP tour of the other clinic I work at in Southport. Showing you the facilities including my personal office and explaining the tools I use as I go.
Wishing everyone in Melbourne a safe recovery during these testing times. Be sure to practice safe social distancing and good hygiene. You’ve got this. 💪
