Environmental allergies are quite common and can have a negative impact on our everyday life. Effectively managing and minimizing symptoms will allow you to enjoy a better quality of life without the disruptions of environmental allergies.

Allergies

Environmental allergies are quite common and can have a negative impact on our everyday life. Effectively managing and minimizing symptoms will allow you to enjoy a better quality of life without the disruptions of environmental allergies. In today’s blog, we will delve into the topic of environmental allergies and how you can effectively manage them!  

Impacts of Environmental Allergies 

Environmental allergies can cause symptoms such as congestion, coughing, fatigue, headaches, hives, runny nose, itchy eyes, sneezing, and more. Environmental allergies can be caused by several allergens including pollen, mold, and dust. These symptoms can impact your sleep, which can impact your energy levels, concentration, and mood throughout the day. Environmental allergies can also make asthma symptoms worse for individuals who have asthma. Overall, environmental allergies can be uncomfortable and can prevent you from living your life to the fullest.  

Management Strategies  

As impactful as environmental allergies are, there are many options you can choose to use to manage and minimize your allergy symptoms. Here are a few of the best allergy management strategies:  

Antihistamines

  • Antihistamines such as Benadryl, Allegra, and Zyrtec can all help reduce symptoms of environmental allergies. Some antihistamines have different side effects than others, so be sure to choose one that will fit your needs best.  

Utilize Air Filters in Your Home

  • Installing air filters in your home will help trap irritating allergens and improve the air quality in your home. Many people find it helpful to use an air purifier with the filter for maximum air quality. With less allergens in your home, your symptoms will be reduced greatly.  

Keep Windows Closed

  • Keeping all windows in your home closed will prevent allergens from entering your home. This is especially helpful if you are allergic to pollen.  

Keep Your Bedroom Allergen Free

  • Regularly cleaning your bedroom will help remove any allergens. Be sure to wash your bedding once a week, vacuum and sweep frequently, and try to avoid allowing any pets in your bedroom.  

With the summer season upon us, your environmental allergies may worsen. With these helpful management strategies, you can effectively reduce your allergy symptoms. If you struggle with environmental allergies, consider getting an allergy test done to find out what you are allergic to. At the Advanced Respiratory Care Network, we offer convenient and easy allergy testing. Visit our website or contact us to find out more!
