Intersection of Highway 39 & Snowbasin Road Making Hay Fever Symptoms More Manageable (NAPSI)-For many people, the turning of the seasons is marked by more than a change in the temperature, or the color of the foliage. An estimated 35 million Americans have seasonal allergic rhinitis-a condition more commonly known as hay fever. Of this group, it’s believed as many as eight million sufferers end up visiting officebased physicians. The most common symptoms of allergies include an itchy, stuffy, runny nose and red, itchy eyes. The best way to decrease allergy symptoms is to avoid exposure to the pollen and fungal spores that commonly trigger fall allergies, according to the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (AAAAI). In addition to visiting an allergist/immunologist who can prescribe medications to relieve symptoms, there are a number of steps allergy sufferers can take to avoid exposure to the pollens and spores to which they are allergic. The AAAAI recommends: Keeping windows of your home and car closed to prevent pollens and spores from drifting in. Instead, use an air conditioner which cools and cleans the air; not taking more medication than recommended by your allergist/immunologist in an attempt to lessen your symptoms; and showering after spending extended periods of time outside to remove pollen and spores from your skin and hair and minimizing outdoor activities when pollen and spore counts are high. The National Allergy Bureau (NAB) helps seasonal allergy sufferers take the first step toward avoiding exposure to the pollen and spores they are allergic to, by letting them know when pollen and spore counts are high in their areas. The NAB is the only pollen and fungal spore-counting network certified by the AAAAI. A pollen and spore count is a measure of the average concentration of pollen and spores in a certain area during a 24-hour period of time. The NAB’s pollen and spore counts are issued to the public three times per week, every Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. To get local pollen and spore counts, visit the NAB Web site at www.aaaai.org/nab or call its toll-free information line at 1-800-9-POLLEN. Ragweed pollen is a common fall allergy trigger.
