Effective tips to manage airborne allergies

flowers world destinationsAllergies are caused by airborne substances called allergens. When allergens try to get inside your body, your immune system attacks them. Sometimes, allergies can cause a lot of pain. The main symptoms of allergies are sneezing, headache, or body pain. The substances which trigger airborne allergies are found everywhere so it is difficult to prevent them completely but one can take precautionary measures beforehand to prevent such allergies. Let us take a closer look at some of the main airborne allergies.

  • Seasonal airborne allergies

These allergies happen at a certain time of the year. Mostly called hay fever, these allergies may include pollen allergy, tree or weed allergy. 

  • Environmental airborne allergy

There are certain factors found in our environment which are responsible for allergies. The allergens may be dust, mold, or pet hair allergens. When these allergens try to enter our body, our immune system prevents them from entering by directly attacking them. For example, sneezing is the direct reaction of dust allergens. 

  • Insect sting allergy

When some insect bites your skin, it causes a rash. A mosquito bite, for example, leaves behind an itchy rash. In this case, an anti-allergic tube is applied to the rash to prevent it from getting worse. 

Causes

There are many substances found in the air which are responsible for causing allergies in our bodies. They are as follows:

  • Dust mites
  • Pollen
  • Fungal spores
  • Pet danders

Symptoms of aero-allergies

There are some common signs and symptoms which are indicated by our body when it comes in close contact with an allergen. 

  • Sneezing
  • Runny or itchy nose
  • Watery eyes
  • Body pain
  • Headache
  • Wheezing
  • Chest tightness
  • Shortness of breath

Prevention

There are many ways to control the spread of airborne allergens. 

  • Avoid using carpets in your homes – carpets are host to dust and dust mites so it is better not to carpet the floors. 
  • Keep the environment clean – your house is your permanent residence which is the host to many allergens. It is better to do wet-vacuuming around the house to avoid the dust. Dusting with a dry cloth escalates the activity of dust mites around the house. 
  • Use air filters – they help to trap allergens and reduce the chances of allergies. Air filters use small mesh to force the air out. This in turn stops the allergens from triggering allergies. 

Treatment

When the symptoms start getting worse, it is better to seek medical treatment. The most adverse symptom is difficulty in breathing. 

  • Consult an allergist

Your health care professional may refer you to an allergy specialist. The allergist may prescribe you some allergy shots to clean your airways from any allergens and to boost up your immune system. PricePro Pharmacy is one of the many Canadian pharmacies which specializes in selling anti-allergic medicines at discounted rates. 

  • Nutritional supplements

Allergies are caused when your immune system is too weak to fight the allergens so one must always take nutritional supplements to boost the immune system. Nutrition can be taken in the form of tablets or syrup along with a healthy diet of course.
