Tips for dealing with seasonal allergies

Seasonal allergies can be difficult to deal with, even when they’re only mild. When you breathe in plant pollen that you are allergic to, it can cause an immune response, leading to a range of negative symptoms.

Here are some tips on how to minimize seasonal allergies:

• Stay indoors when possible
• Consider wearing a mask outdoors
• Keep your home and car windows closed
• Change out of your clothing when you return from being outside and shower to rinse off the pollen
• Speak to your healthcare provider about taking  antihistamines to limit the inflammatory response
