An estimated 18 million Brits face hay fever hell for six months - with more intense spring pollen than normal and summer sneezes lasting a month longer this year. Sniffles will start over the next week as tree pollen levels rocket from near-zero to high due to a week of dry conditions and sunny spells, experts said.
Hay fever symptoms lend themselves to home treatment. 1  Gargle with warm salt water, 1-2 tablespoons of table salt in 8 ounces of warm water, to soothe a mildly sore throat.  Take nonprescription antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) to relieve symptoms of sneezing, runny nose, and itchy throat and eyes.
