Don't lose hope though, here are some easy tips to help you fight off your allergies and enjoy spring!
- Pollen counts are earliest before 10 AM. Keep your windows closed during this time, to help prevent pollen from entering your home.
- Have Asthma? Make sure you're inhalers aren't expired. If you're needing your albuterol more than 2 x per week, go see your doctor.
- Wipe your dog off after walking with a wet washcloth. This will help prevent outdoor allergens from entering your home.
- Spending the day in the park? Take medicine before you go and shower when you get home to wash the pollen off of you.
- Playing softball with your company? Make sure you have extra anti-histamines & asthma medication in your sports bag.
- If your symptoms are severe, prescription medication may be necessary.
