TV presenter Dr Hilary Jones has warned people to be careful about the treatments they use to treat hay fever. Dr Hilary, who is well known for his TV appearances, told Lorraine Kelly on ITV that the UK was in the grip of a "pollen bomb" and that some clinics were advertising illegally for a remedy.
He said: "It's pollen bomb season, we've been warned by the Met office that with the warm weather we're facing a pollen bomb. So lots of pollen in the atmosphere. All those people with hay fever and asthma therefore will be on alert for their symptoms getting a lot worse, or starting for the first time this year.
