Tips for easing sneezing and pollen tricks
Practical advice for allergy relief includes closing windows at night to keep pollens and molds out, using air conditioning and dehumidification to maintain clean dry air, and keeping car windows closed while traveling. Limit outdoor activity on high pollen or humidity days and check the National Allergy Bureau for local counts. Consider vacations to pollen free areas and wear a mask when mowing. Shower and change clothes after outdoor time to remove pollen and mold from skin and hair.
