Rain May Be Blessing Or Curse For Allergy Sufferers
As an allergy sufferer, I know how irritating the smallest outdoor allergens can be. But here’s something I didn’t realize. Rain can either be a blessing or a curse.
Samantha Harkinson is having a hard time enjoying the great outdoors. Samantha says, “A lot of headaches, stuffy nose, drainage, just everything kind of gross like that.” It’s the result of wet weather, which has aggravated her allergies. Dr. Mark Millard says, ” “If you’re mold sensitive, it’s a bad news bears day because it is really high out there.”

But the doctor says there’s a flip side… especially for people who suffer from pollen and grass allergies. Dr. Millard says, “You’re home free cause there’s very little pollen in the air. The rain washes it out.” The rain also reduces high ozone levels. But that’s little consolation to mold sufferers in search of relief. Samantha says, “I take the occasional pain medicine or something.” If you’re symptoms are mostly above the neck, you can probably find relief at the drugstore. Dr. Millard likes products containing loratidine.. which is in Claritin. But if you’re wheezing, you need to see a doctor. Dr. Millard says, “If you’re wheezing, I would never take wheezing lightly.”
If you haven’t been to the doctor lately, there are some new medications that might help. Or you can wait for the weather to change. If you’re not allergic to mold, don’t think you’re off the hook. Dr. Millard says a lot of rain will mean a bumper crop of ragweed later in the summer. There you go, a little something for every allergy sufferer.
