Indoor and Outdoor Allergies


If you suffer from allergies year round, you could be experiencing perennial (indoor) allergies.

Dust Mites:
These tiny creatures are typically found in upholstered furniture, carpets, and bedding.

Pet Dander:
Pet allergies stem from proteins contained in an animal’s dander, or dead skin cells, which flakes off regularly.

Mold & Mildew:
Mold reproduces through tiny, airborne spores. Indoor molds grow in damp areas, like the bathtub or shower.
Tips to Reduce Indoor Allergies
Depending on what heat, humidity or air conditioning systems you use, you may be helping or hindering your allergen control efforts. Here are some tips on how to use these systems to reduce indoor allergens.

1. Clean Your Heater: Forced-air heating can blow dust into your home. Make sure to clean the filters regularly to keep dust particles down.

2. Crank the AC: Air conditioning actually dehumidifies the air and filters out pollen, which dislikes airflow. Keep it cranked up in the summer months.

3. Dehumidify: When it’s too cold out for the AC, use a dehumidifier to keep the air dry. This will help prevent the spread of mold.

4. Filter The Air: Use a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter. This will help to rid your home of dust and other allergens.

5. Low Tech Tip: Keep bathroom windows open while showering to let out moist air and help prevent mold and mildew. But keep windows closed in other rooms to help make sure outdoor allergens don’t get in.


If you suffer from allergies at certain times of the year, such as spring or fall, you may have seasonal (outdoor) allergies.

Tree Pollen:

Tree pollen is usually the first seasonal allergen to appear. In the South, trees start releasing pollen as early as January.
Grass Pollen:

Grass pollen is both seasonal and regional. While this allergy trigger affects people outdoors, it can be carried in by wind, people, and pets.
Weed Pollen:

Weed pollen usually flourishes from late summer to early fall. It is particularly troublesome on dry, hot, windy days.
Tips to Reduce Outdoor Allergies
Do your allergy symptoms tell you that spring is coming long before you see it on the calendar? Here are five simple tips and tricks to help keep reactions to outdoor allergy triggers under control:

1. Plan outdoor activities around pollen levels: Check daily pollen counts and forecasts and try to stay indoors when pollen levels are highest (between 10AM and 4PM). Try to focus your time outdoors in the early morning.

2. Keep your home clean and keep allergens out: Use an air filter and keep your windows closed during the day. Use washable curtains and wash them often. Mop your floors regularly, and for carpets, use a vacuum with a high-efficacy particulate air (HEPA) filter to ensure that allergens are minimized.

3. Change your clothes, shower and wash your hair: Once you’re done with your outdoor fun, put your clothes in the laundry basket, take a shower and wash your hair. This helps reduce the allergens you bring into your home. It’s also a good practice to shower before bed, keeping allergens out of your bedding.

4. Keep your furry friends groomed, too: Pets can carry pollen and mold on their coats, so bathing and grooming can keep allergen levels down. If your pet enjoys time outdoors, keep him out of your bedroom to minimize allergens.

5. Track your allergens: The Mayo Clinic recommends keeping an allergy diary. Keep track of all your activities, including the time of day when symptoms occur and what helps lessen them. This can help your doctor identify your triggers and manage your symptoms.

Types of Allergy Medication


ANTIHISTAMINES
FORM: Pill, liquid and nasal spray

USE: Antihistamines block histamines, compounds released by cells in response to injury, allergic and inflammatory reactions while helping to relieve annoying allergy symptoms like sneezing, itchy, watery eyes, runny nose and itchy throat or nose.


DECONGESTANTS
FORM: Pill, liquid and nasal spray

USE: Alleviates both nasal and sinus congestion by shrinking swollen membranes. Sometimes decongestants are combined with antihistamines like ZYRTEC-D.


ANTIHISTAMINE EYE DROPS
FORM: Eye drops

USE: These types of eye drops are designed to help relieve itchy, watery eyes, which affects over 80% of people with allergies.


INTRANASAL CORTICOSTEROIDS
FORM: Nasal sprays

USE: Relieves nasal congestion and other nasal allergy symptoms by reducing inflammation in the nose.


IMMUNOTHERAPY
FORM: Allergy shots, pills and oral drops

USE: Treatment administered by a doctor that gradually gives increasing doses of allergens to provoke an antibody response, reduce your sensitivity and increase your tolerance of the allergens.
