## Rinse Your Nose Pollen settles in the nasal cavity. To remove it and reduce the risk of allergy symptoms, rinse your nose with a saline solution. ## Limit Your Time Outdoors On days with high pollen concentrations, try to spend less time outside, especially in the morning when pollen levels are highest. It's best to go for walks after it has rained, as precipitation helps clear the air. ## Use Protective Gear If you plan to be outdoors, wear sunglasses and a mask. Sunglasses ===will protect your eyes from pollen, while a mask will reduce the amount of allergens entering your respiratory system. ## Keep Windows Closed This will help prevent pollen from entering your home. ## Purify the Air Use air conditioners with filters to clean the air, and remember to replace them regularly. Additionally, consider using an air purifier and humidifier at home. ## Change Clothes Pollen sticks to your clothes, shoes, and accessories. When you come home, change into clean clothes immediately. Designate a "pollen zone" near the entrance where you remove outdoor clothing and shoes to prevent allergens from spreading indoors. It's best to wash the clothes you wore outside right away. ## Shower in the Evening Water will wash away allergens that accumulate on your hair, face, and body throughout the day. Showering also prevents pollen from transferring to your bedding, which is important for proper breathing and restful sleep. ## Find the Right Medication If antihistamines don't work, try nasal sprays. Some medications are more effective if taken in advance, before the pollen season starts. > Consult a doctor and consider allergen immunotherapy. ## Eat the Right Foods Certain foods can worsen allergy symptoms. Avoid foods high in histamine, such as alcohol, fermented foods, and certain types of cheese. Instead, include more fresh fruits, vegetables, and foods rich in vitamin D and omega-3 fatty acids, as they help strengthen the immune system.
