Allergy season can be a difficult time for many people, and with the pollen and mold in the air, it’s important to take some steps to stay healthy and comfortable. Here are some tips and tricks to help you survive allergy season:

1. Wear sunglasses. When you’re out and about, wearing sunglasses can help protect your eyes from pollen and other allergens. It’s also a good idea to try to breathe through your nose as much as possible to avoid inhaling allergens.

2. Keep your windows closed. Doing this, along with using your air conditioner when you’re inside, can help filter out allergens and keep them from getting inside your home or car.

3. Take a shower. When you come inside, take a shower to rinse off any pollen or other allergens that may be on your skin or hair. This can help you avoid further exposure to allergens.

4. Combine nasal spray and allergy medication. For many people, combining a non-drowsy daytime allergy medication with a nasal spray can provide relief from allergy symptoms.

By following these tips and tricks, you can manage your allergy symptoms and enjoy the season. Remember, always talk to your doctor or healthcare provider before starting any new medication or treatment.
