Surviving Pollen Season - Tips for Coping with Intensifying Allergies

How to Prepare for Longer and More Intense Pollen Seasons

As springtime arrives, so does pollen season. For many people, this can mean weeks or even months of uncomfortable symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes. However, there are many steps you can take to survive pollen season and keep your allergies under control. In this beginner's guide to surviving pollen season, we'll discuss some essential tips and strategies.

Check the pollen count:

Check the pollen count in your area regularly, and plan your outdoor activities accordingly. Pollen counts are highest in the early morning and on windy days, so try to stay indoors during those times.

Keep your windows closed:

Keeping your windows closed can help prevent pollen from entering your home. Use an air conditioner to keep your home cool and comfortable, and consider using an air purifier to filter out pollen and other allergens.

Practice good hygiene:

Good hygiene can help reduce the amount of pollen that comes into contact with your skin and eyes. Shower before bedtime to remove any pollen that may have accumulated on your skin and hair, and wash your clothes and bedding regularly.

Wear protective gear:

When you do need to go outside, wear a hat and sunglasses to protect your face and eyes from pollen. Consider wearing a face mask to filter out pollen and other allergens.

Use over-the-counter medications:

Over-the-counter allergy medications like antihistamines and nasal sprays can help relieve allergy symptoms. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist to find the best medication for your specific allergies.

Try natural remedies:

Some natural remedies may also help reduce allergy symptoms. These include using a saline nasal rinse, drinking herbal tea with anti-inflammatory properties, and eating foods that are high in vitamin C and quercetin. Don't let allergies get you down. surviving pollen season can be challenging, but it's not impossible. By checking the pollen count, keeping your windows closed, practicing good hygiene, wearing protective gear, using over-the-counter medications, and trying natural remedies, you can keep your allergies under control and enjoy the springtime weather. Remember, if your symptoms persist or become severe, it's important to talk to your doctor to find the best treatment options for you. Read the full article

Suffering from Spring Allergies? Check Out These Tips!

If there is one thing that won’t put a little spring in your step, it’s allergies. Instead of enjoying the nice weather, you have to worry about itchy eyes and cough attacks. Luckily, we’re here to offer you a few tips to help manage your spring allergies.

Tip #1: Do some spring cleaning! 

Whip out your cleaning supplies and get rid of the dust that has been building up in your home all winter to make it as allergen-free as possible. Vacuum throughly and consider getting a HEPA filter. Also, keep your pets off your bed! Your fluffy friends can carry pollen and attract dust mites. This means even if you aren’t allergic to their specific allergens, your pets can still bring other allergy triggering symptoms into your home.

Tip #2 : Check the pollen and mold count every morning! 

You can check the pollen count every morning online. Use this to prepare yourself for the day ahead—both mentally and by taking your allergy medication. If the count is especially high, consider staying indoors. 

Tip #3: Get an allergy shot!

If your allergy medication isn’t working, consider getting an allergy shot! Allergy shots are effective in treating many types of spring allergies. Visit a trusted allergy clinic, like McGovern Allergy and Asthma Clinic, to get yours today. 

Tip #4:  Wear big sunglasses 

Buoyhealth.com suggests wearing big sunglasses to prevent allergens from flying in your eyes. You could also be trendy and wear a face mask if your allergies are severe. Since many spring allergens are too minuscule to be filtered naturally by your nose and throat, defense mechanisms such as sunglasses or face masks can help filter the air around you. 

Tip #5: Switch up your shower routine

Showering at night can actually be better for your allergies, according to verywellhealth.com. So if you’re a morning shower person, try switching it up and showering at night to wash all that pollen off.

If you feel like you’ve tried everything on this tip list and your allergy symptoms still aren’t improving, book an appointment with a trusted allergy clinic, like McGovern Allergy and Asthma Clinic. McGovern’s board-certified allergists can help by conducting tests to see what specific allergens are causing you grief and finding you a treatment that actually works.

The pollen count is set to be very high this week. For a simple, non-medicated solution try @haymaxofficial pollen barrier. Apply this non-greasy balm to the upper lip, nostrils 👃 and under the eyes 👀 to trap the pollens and stop them from getting in & causing the typical #hayfever symptoms. #haymax #itchyeyes #pollen #pollencount #chelseaflowershow #treepollen #flowers #pollensucks #alternative #health #drugfree #thepersonaltrainingcentre #personaltrainingstudio # (at The Personal Training Centre)
