Managing a crested wheatgrass allergy during peak pollen season involves a combination of avoiding exposure and using appropriate medication. When wheatgrass is pollinating, which typically occurs in late spring and early summer, it's important to minimize outdoor activities, especially on windy days or shortly after a rainfall when the pollen count is typically high. It can also be helpful to keep windows closed, use air conditioning in your home and car, and change clothes and shower after coming indoors to wash pollen off.
To handle allergic symptoms, over-the-counter antihistamines, such as cetirizine, loratadine, and fexofenadine, can be effective in relieving sneezing, itching, a runny nose, and watery eyes. For nasal congestion, a decongestant, either oral or nasal spray, can be added. A corticosteroid nasal spray may be recommended by your doctor if you experience persistent or severe symptoms.
Immunotherapy or allergy shots may also be an option if symptoms are severe and other treatments aren't providing adequate relief. These shots gradually decrease your immune system's response to the allergen, reducing symptoms over time.
Remember to consult a healthcare provider or allergy specialist for advice tailored to your specific condition, symptoms, and overall health. It's also important to monitor pollen levels, as these can vary from day to day and location to location. You can do this via online sources, weather apps or local news outlets.
