April showers bring May flowers--and the pollen!
It's that time of year when many of us suffer from the effects of pollen in the air.
The scratchy throat, itchy eyes, and runny nose are often the symptoms we feel during the Spring season. Here are some tips to help combat these bothersome reactions.
--Wear a hat and sunglasses to reduce the amount of pollen that blows into your eyes.
--Keep home and car windows closed to prevent pollen from drifting in.
--Use air conditioning to filter pollen from the air in your home.
--Take a shower after spending time outdoors.
--Avoid touching your face and eyes while outside.
--Enjoy the outdoors on rainy, cloudy days, preferably at times when pollen levels are low.
--Remove shoes when entering your home.
