Spring, 2012
|
Spring arrived especially early this year and everything is in full bloom. That sniffling, feeling that you're getting, may not be a spring cold. You may have allergies. You may have even noticed that your car or many outdoor surfaces seem dirtier than usual. That yellow powder on your car or deck table is pollen. This is a sign of allergy season. Coughing, sneezing, wheezing, hacking, and red watery eyes are all good signs that you may be suffering from allergies.
Pollen counts in February of this year ranged into the thousands. This very rare. Tree pollen allergies usually don't start until April and May. Since this allergy season started earlier, it will most likely end later. If you find yourself to be susceptible, there are a few easy steps you can take to lower your exposure. First, if you've no reason to be outside, stay inside. Second, while inside your house (or car) close the windows. You might also want to wash your hair before going to bed. Pollen tends to stick to hair.
Lastly, for those suffering with allergies, "there's an App for that". "iPollenCount" for iPhone, "Allergy Forecast" for Windows Phone, and Pollen.com (Allergy Alert) for Android. All are available through your phones App Store, and will help you keep track of the types of pollen that are causing you irritation. |
