After weeks moaning about the cold weather summer finally arrived, but it brought with it another problem.
The pollen count has peaked alongside the temperatures and for those with Hay Fever it's a nightmare.
The best advice for those suffering is to stay indoors, but who wants to do that.
The good news is that a simple tin of Vaseline could be the answer.
According to the Mirror the common pharmacy staple can help alleviate your suffering.
Hay fever is so much more unpleasant than simply sneezing more than usual. It's the itchy eyes, the fatigue, the scratchy sensation in your throat and your face puffing up.
So how can Vaseline (or petroleum jelly in general) help?
Many people who find themselves knocked for six by hay fever have sworn by Vaseline.
What they do, is they apply a layer around the insides of their nostrils as high as possible.
Yes, it might look - and even feel - a little weird, but it's a much better alternative to the effects of hay fever.
