🍂 Fall is here—and so are seasonal allergies! 🤧
As the leaves change and cooler weather rolls in, many kiddos (and adults too!) start sneezing, sniffling, and rubbing itchy eyes. These are common signs of fall allergies, triggered by things like ragweed pollen, mold, and dust mites.
👃 Common symptoms include:
Sneezing
Runny or stuffy nose
Itchy, watery eyes
Coughing
Fatigue
Trouble sleeping
Thankfully, there are ways to prevent and manage those pesky allergy symptoms! This helpful graphic shares 5 smart tips to reduce exposure this fall:
1️⃣ Keep doors and windows closed
2️⃣ Clean vents and air filters
3️⃣ Dust and vacuum regularly
4️⃣ Change clothes after playing outside
5️⃣ Wear a mask during peak allergen times
!!! Reminder Nurse Krista does not keep Allergy meds on stock!
Let’s keep our little ones breathing easy this season! 💛🍁
