Ask Dr. Vieder
After this epic winter, what can we expect with this year's allergy season?
Due to this year's long winter season, which has resulted in months of extreme cold and wet
weather, the upcoming allergy season is predicted to be among the worst on record. As the weather
begins to warm, the water in the ground will create higher than normal mold counts and increased
vegetative growth. In addition, we can also expect trees and flowers to bloom around the same
time, making for a bad allergy season this year.
What is the best way for me to reduce and treat allergy symptoms?
The best defense against allergy symptoms is early intervention. Taking antihistamines before
you anticipate a problem is more beneficial than waiting until symptoms appear. Most allergy
medications work best on a preventative basis. Also, don't forget about taking preventative actions
at home. Utilize an air purifier and hypoallergenic pillowcases to help stave off allergy
symptoms. (Finally, pollen is most active early in the morning and around 5 or 6 p.m.
Consider outdoor activities later in the afternoon when the pollen count is lowest.
