Here’s how to recognize, reduce, and treat your summer allergies.
Common Summer Allergens and Symptoms
During the summer months, several allergens are particularly prevalent:
- Pollen: Grass and weed pollens are significant culprits, often causing sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes.
- Mold Spores: Thriving in humid conditions – mold can lead to respiratory issues and exacerbate allergies.
- Dust Mites: Higher indoor humidity levels can increase dust mite populations, leading to nasal congestion and coughing.
Tips for Reducing Exposure to Allergens
Proactive measures can significantly reduce your allergen exposure:
- Keep Windows Closed: Utilize air conditioning to cool your home and keep pollen out.
- Shower After Outdoor Activities: This helps remove pollen from your skin and hair, preventing indoor spread.
- Use a Dehumidifier: Low indoor humidity levels can reduce mold and dust mite growth.
- Monitor Pollen Levels: Stay updated with local pollen forecasts and limit outdoor activities when counts are high.
