Dealing with Allergies

Over 50 million people in America have allergies. For them, coping can be difficult as symptoms affect more than just your nose, but your whole quality of life. Luckily, there are some tips for dealing with allergies that can improve not only your wellbeing, but also your mood. Remember, while there is no cure for allergies, learning how to keep them under control can be almost as good.

See Your Doctor for Advice

The first thing you should do when you think you may have allergies is to see your doctor. Regardless of what your Aunt Mary says or your friend in spinning class, you need a doctor’s opinion. Allergies are tricky. You certainly do not want to self-diagnose and find that you were wrong. Make a list of your specific symptoms and bring it with you. More than likely, your doctor will be able to correctly identify what you are allergic to and prescribe medications that will make you feel better.

Understand your Allergy

In addition to seeking professional help, take the time to educate yourself about your allergy. Is there a specific food that you react to? Do you feel a sneeze coming on every time you pass freshly cut lawn? Learning about the specific triggers of your allergy will help you to understand allergens and how to avoid them. After all, the more you know, the better off you will be. You may be surprised to find that just a few simple changes in your daily routine can make a world of difference. Look into using hypoallergenic products and keep records of how you feel after reducing exposure to certain things. By understanding your allergy and what triggers your symptoms, you may be able to avoid them entirely.

Understand your Medicines

Even after a doctor prescribes certain medicines, it is a good idea to research them. After all, these are chemicals that you are putting in your body; you should want to know everything about them. Pay careful attention to side effects and learn about the consequences of mixing certain drugs. Exercise caution and do not over medicate. Remember, just because you can use more does not mean that you should. For example, more eye drops can actually make your eyes feel worse. Medicine is meant to improve your condition, but even doctors get it wrong sometimes. By carefully observing your medications and tracking how you feel you can greatly improve your chances of feeling better. Remember to be smart about your medication. If you use antihistamines, be sure to keep them on hand at all times. This means in the car, in your purse or wherever you will have access. Be smart and be prepared.

Practice Good Personal Hygiene

Allergies or not, this is just good advice. Wash your hands frequently throughout the day, particularly if you have been outside or handling items outside the home. It is a fact that pollen remains on your clothing and your skin until it is washed off, so remember to wash clothing after one use and try to wash outer garments more often. Throughout the day if your allergies are severe, find a restroom and splash your face with cold water. It is amazing what even a simple hand washing can do. In the evenings, shower before going to bed and change bed linens frequently.

Dealing with allergies can be difficult, negatively affecting not only your health, but also, your quality of life. Take steps to make things easier for yourself. Discuss your condition with your doctor and take the time to educate yourself about your allergy and your medicines.

By knowing the different types of allergens, how to avoid them, practicing good personal hygiene and understanding your medicines you can deal with allergies effectively.
