Grass pollen has been absurd for the last 2 weeks in the East Bay. I have severe grass allergy, which primary means near-swollen-shut-eyes with no counter-measures. Here is my developed protocol: 1. Oral Zyrtec or Claratin, switch which one is taken every 6 wks to avoid building a resistance to the specific antihistimine! 2. Saline nasal rinse (bottled from store or from home-boiled water and salt) 3. Corticosteroid nasal spray. Applied so that it is not shot directly up nose, pointed away from the bridge of the nose. Allow 5-10min for it to absorb, do not blow nose just after. 4. Mineral sunscreen, for moisturizing/uv protection and also it helps to keep pollen out of the eyes. https://www.iqair.com/as/pollen/usa/california/berkeley |
