Spring or Seasonal Allergies

Do you experience spring or seasonal allergies? 🤧
 
As the snow melts, common air contaminants like pollen, grass and mold can stir up allergens. Watch out for common symptoms like watery eyes, sneezing, coughing, runny or stuffy nose, post-nasal drip, sore throat and headache and fatigue.
 
Manage and treat your spring allergies with these tips:
 
🏡 keep your house and car clean and free of dust, and ensure windows stay closed
 
🏔 limit the time you spend outside when pollen counts are high (midday and afternoon)
 
👕 change your clothes after you work or play outside
 
🚿 use a vaporizer or humidifier in the bedroom and take hot showers to help clear a stuffy nose
 
💧 stay hydrated – extra fluids can help to thin the mucus in your nasal passages and encourage sinus drainage
 
💊 use over-the-counter allergy
medicine to help your symptoms
 
👨🏾‍⚕️ ask your doctor or pharmacist for suggestions to eliminate or reduce your allergy symptoms.
