While springtime brings joy to many, it’s a different story for allergy sufferers. Here’s expert advice on simple yet effective ways to manage allergies this season.
- Get an air purifier - Or if you already have one, check the air filter and see if it's time to change it.
- Always shower before bed - People don't realize how much pollen collects on their skin and clothes. In general, you also might want to wash your sheets more often this time of year.
- Buy some local honey - It can help you build up a tolerance to local pollen. Just put some in your tea, or on cereal.
- Track the pollen count - Spend more time indoors when it's high, and think about joining a gym instead of jogging outside. Most of the big weather apps track the pollen count now.
- Wear sunglasses - They can block some of the pollen from hitting your eyeballs. The kind that wrap around your face work best.
