How to avoid Allergy?

After a long, cold winter, nobody wants to be incapacitated in the spring, allergies or not. Luckily, the age-long struggle against seasonal allergic rhinitis has given allergy sufferers some tools and strategies for fighting back! Here are a few simple tips.

Avoid outdoor exercise or gardening during peak pollen-release hours (6 a.m. to 10 a.m.).
Wear a particle mask when mowing the lawn or gardening.
Consider using a HEPA type air cleaner in the house to help clean the air of pollen particles. • Keep your windows closed, especially on days of high pollen counts.
(Check local television or newspaper weather reports for pollen counts and forecasts.)
If you’ve been outside on a bad pollen day, bathe and wash your hair and change your clothes to remove tiny pollen molecules. It is especially important to wash your hair before going to bed because you may bring pollen into bed with you and inhale it as you sleep.
Over-the-counter medications, such as antihistamines and decongestants, can lesson some of the initial symptoms. However, to get the most out of these medications, it’s best to take them before any allergy symptoms appear, and to keep taking them regularly.

You don't have to change your life to deal with allergies. With proper treatment and some common sense, you should be able to enjoy spring for all it’s worth
