Seasonal Allergy Prevention Methods

The cause of your individual seasonal allergies can depend on the time of year. In the spring, many people experience allergy symptoms from pollen exposure. However, allergies can be triggered at any time of the year from a variety of irritants – including mold, dust, grass, and pet dander/saliva. Once you understand what irritant is causing your symptoms, you’ll be able to follow the right prevention methods.

The best way to prevent allergies is to avoid exposure to your allergen. Consider staying indoors on high pollen days and keeping your windows and doors closed. Other prevention methods include using an air filter, washing your bedsheets, vacuuming carpets, washing your hands and face regularly, wearing sunglasses outside, and wearing a mask outside. While preventing your allergies is an effective way to ease your symptoms, you may also need supplemental medication to further treat your allergies.

Diagnosis & Treatment Options for Seasonal Allergies

The first step in properly treating your seasonal allergies is to receive a professional diagnosis. At AFC Urgent Care Clark, which has an on-site lab, our healthcare providers can guide you through the comprehensive diagnosis process. Typically, your visit will begin with a discussion of your symptoms and medical history. Your provider may also perform a physical exam and recommend additional testing to further determine what’s causing your allergies.

There are treatment options available at the clinic to help alleviate your symptoms and provide much-needed relief. Treatment can depend on what is triggering your symptoms, but can include over-the-counter medications, and prescription ointments or lotions. While medication can be effective at alleviating your symptoms, your provider may also offer supportive care recommendations. This includes avoiding exposure to your irritant, staying hydrated, and getting plenty of rest.
