Combat Your Allergy Symptoms
There are several ways to overcome your allergy symptoms and research is always ongoing to find more:
- Avoidance—If you know your allergens, sometimes you can avoid them. If you are allergic to cats, stay away from them. If you have dust allergies, certain housekeeping techniques and furnishings can help.
- Medications—Antihistamines, corticosteroids, decongestants, leukotriene modifiers, and cromolyn sodium are just a few options we might recommend, depending on the type of allergies you suffer. Each goes about regulating the immune response or preventing allergic irritation in different ways.
- Immunotherapy—Allergy shots can help reprogram the immune systems of some individuals.
- Epinephrine—If you have allergies severe enough to cause anaphylaxis, your ENT will have you carry an EpiPen at all times so you can halt a dangerous allergic reaction (especially for people with severe allergies to bee stings, peanuts, etc.).
