Severe hay fever is an
unpleasant allergic condition that can be a real problem for extreme sufferers,
especially in certain parts of the UK where the allergen count tends to be high
- whether it is flower pollen (such as rapeseed) or tree pollen (such as silver
birch). Apparently, there are 3 billion trees in the UK, that’s 47 for every
Briton.
Treatment for severe hay fever
is with a corticosteroid injection similar to the treatment given for joint
problems and inflammatory conditions such as tennis elbow and frozen shoulder.
Like all injections and
treatments, a thorough risk assessment is undertaken by our doctors and nurses
to consider the person's suitability for treatment but for those that are good
candidates, the symptoms relief can be dramatically superior to taking oral antihistamine
tablets or nasal sprays and eye drops.
A single dose tends to last for
around 3 months and most people then stop using any other medication for the hay fever.
