Daily Allergy Meds

Injections

Prevention
Do you feel the worst when outside mowing the grass, tending the garden, or enjoying the night? Aside from the obvious solution of just not doing those things, try to get away from the allergens. While you’re outside doing your favorite things, wear a mask that covers your face and prevents pollen and other allergy inducing substances into your mouth and nose. Wear gloves and long pants if grass or hay makes you itchy and be sure to wear protective gear if you’re going to be outside for a long period of time.
Don’t let your allergies keep you inside this fall. Be able to do everything you love out and about with the literal headache.
