When attending outdoor events and to minimize exposure to Needle Grass pollen, considering the pollen count is a good starting point. During high pollen seasons, it might be best to limit your outdoor activities, especially on dry, windy days when pollen dispersal is high.

When you are outdoors, long sleeves, sunglasses, and hats can help keep pollen away from your skin and eyes. In the event that pollen does make contact, shower and change your clothes as soon as you are able to. Washing hands regularly can also help reduce the chance of touching your face with pollen-covered hands.

If an outdoor event is unavoidable during a particularly high pollen count, consider taking an antihistamine approximately two hours beforehand. This can help prevent an allergic reaction from occurring in the first place.

For those with severe allergenic reactions to Needle Grass pollen, you may want to carry an EpiPen (epinephrine autoinjector) in case of an anaphylactic reaction.

After outdoor exposure, nasal irrigation with a saline solution can also help to clear the nasal passages of any residual pollen.

Lastly, keep windows closed at home and use air conditioning in your home and car to filter out pollen. Regularly clean or change these filters to prevent buildup.

Remember, it's important to consult with a medical professional or allergist who can provide you with personalized advice based on your individual allergy profile. They may have additional precautions or treatment plans to recommend.

Why prevention is more effective than allergy medicine

Exposure therapy:
Train your immune system to fight allergies rather than treat them with medications
Desensitization: Symptoms subside as your body desensitized to allergies reducing or eliminating the need for daily medication
Prevention: Immunotherapy helps prevent and fight allergies at the source
