Here are some simple and practical allergy tips, reported by FOX News, to help you:
• Wear oversized sunglasses to block airborne pollens and molds from entering your eyes and lids.
• Wear a hat. Go for a wide-brimmed one and avoid hair gels that turn your ‘do into a pollen magnet.
• Pollen levels are highest on windy, dry and sunny days. Check your local weather reports to identify high allergy days.
• Get your seasonal allergies confirmed. Simple in-office allergy tests can pinpoint your problem.
• Start early with allergy treatment. Many medications will work better (nasal antihistamines/steroids, oral antihistamines and eye drops) if you start them even before symptoms begin.
• Consider allergy shots and/or sublingual allergy treatment. These are the only immune-based therapy that will help reduce allergy symptoms. The goal is to provide excellent long-term relief, in a large majority of allergy sufferers.
