For sufferers of Crested Wheatgrass pollen allergies, pets can inadvertently contribute to allergy symptoms by bringing the pollen into the house on their fur. To help keep your symptoms at bay, consider taking the following steps:
First, a practical solution would be to keep your pets indoors during peak pollen seasons or when the pollen count is high. If this is not feasible, ensure you practice regular grooming for your pets, especially after they've been outdoors. Washing your pet weekly can help remove allergens from their fur. Also, it might benefit you to invest in a high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter. These filters can effectively remove allergens from your home's environment.
Another option is to administer allergy medication, both over-the-counter and prescription, that can help control your symptoms. Antihistamines can counteract the effects of the allergen, while nasal corticosteroids can reduce inflammation and congestion. Decongestants and leukotriene modifiers may also ease symptoms. It's key to talk to a healthcare provider before starting any new medication, even over-the-counter variants, to ensure it's the right fit for you.
Furthermore, consider allergy immunotherapy, a long-term solution that involves exposing your body to small amounts of the allergen over a period of time to build immunity for it. It's to be conducted under medical observation to ensure safety. The treatment may involve allergy shots or sublingual tablets/drops.
Bear in mind, ensuring your home is clean and dust-free also plays a vital role in curbing allergens. Regular vacuuming, using mite-proof covers on your bedding, and washing your sheets in hot water weekly can help reduce allergen presence in your home.
Managing allergies often involves a combination of lifestyle changes and medical treatments. A regular check-up with your allergist is recommended to evaluate and adjust your allergy management measures.
