In this article, we will explain in detail from various angles how to prevent and deal with hay fever, the natural enemy of spring, along with advice from experts.
By reading this article, take the first step to fully enjoy spring and live a comfortable life.
What is the mechanism of hay fever?
Hay fever is caused when plant pollen is dispersed into the air and humans inhale it.
In particular, pollen from cedar and cypress trees causes many hay fever sufferers throughout Japan.
First of all, it is important to know your enemy in order to defend yourself.
Prevention of hay fever: Basic measures to take
1. Environmental measures
The amount of pollen scattered varies depending on the weather and time.
The amount of airborne particles is particularly high during sunny days, so refrain from going out on sunny days, or wear a mask or glasses if necessary to reduce the amount of airborne particles.
2. Effective use of masks
Masks are the easiest and most effective way to protect yourself from pollen.
The most basic thing to do is to use a commercially available anti-pollen mask on a daily basis and always wear it when going out.
3. Indoor measures
It is also important to ventilate your home frequently to prevent pollen from being brought into your home.
However, opening windows during periods with high pollen levels may have the opposite effect, so we recommend using an air purifier.
How to deal with hay fever: specific ways to suppress symptoms
1. Review your eating habits
A nutritionally balanced diet can help reduce hay fever symptoms.
In particular, it is a good idea to actively incorporate foods rich in vitamin C, vitamin E, and omega-3 fatty acids.
2. Effects of nasal gargle
Symptoms will worsen if pollen gets into your nose, so it is important to wash your nose out by rinsing your nose after returning home.
This is one of the measures that even women around 40 can easily take.
3. Use of allergy medicines
Symptoms can be alleviated by using over-the-counter antihistamines.
However, it is important to consult your doctor and choose the medicine that best suits your physical condition and symptoms.
Lifestyle habits for a comfortable spring
1. Clean frequently
By removing dust and dust mites from your home, you can suppress not only pollen but also allergy symptoms in general.
Especially keep your bedroom clean.
2. Managing stress
Stress can worsen hay fever symptoms.
Take time to relax and relieve stress through hobbies or exercise.
3. Regular health checkups
It is very important to check your body regularly, as there is a possibility that you have allergies other than hay fever.
summary
Correct knowledge and daily prevention and treatment are the keys to successfully dealing with hay fever and enjoying a comfortable spring.
I hope this article will help you enjoy the beautiful spring season.
