If untreated, allergies can progress to more serious infections such as ear infections, sinusitis, or conjunctivitis.\u00a0 Your health professional can help you differentiate between allergy symptoms and viral illnesses. He can recommend the most appropriate medication regimen for you.\u00a0 There is also blood and skin tests that can help identify specific allergies.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration:

to avoid the offending allergens and to minimize exposure.\u00a0 One of the most common allergies is to dust mites that are concentrated in the bed.\u00a0\u00a0 We spend about 1\/3 of our life in the bedroom and not surprising that is where dust mites concentrate.\u00a0 Dust mites eat the dead skin that flakes off your skin and excrete feces which we inhale while we sleep.\u00a0 Washing the blankets and pillowcases in hot water once a week should minimize dust mites.\u00a0 In addition to frequent washing, encasing\u00a0<a

purifier<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Outdoor allergies can be difficult to avoid but one can minimize symptoms by taking a non-sedating antihistamine before going outside.\u00a0 The American Academy of Allergy and Immunology\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aaaai.org\/nab\/index.cfm?p=pollen\">tracks pollen counts <\/a>in the United States that you can use their webpage to determine when pollen counts are high.\u00a0 After coming into the home, remove your clothing and shower will help remove any pollens that attach to your hair and body.\u00a0 In addition, keep the windows in your house closed to prevent pollen from coming into your home.\u00a0 Pets also bring outdoor allergens into the home so bathing them regularly will decrease the your exposure.<\/p>\n<p>If avoidance and over-the-counter medications do not relieve your symptoms, your physician my run additional tests to make the correct diagnosis.\u00a0 Some tests would include a blood test for allergies.\u00a0 This test identifies the levels of antibodies against allergens that your body has reacted; a high level of these antibodies would indicate an allergy to that particular allergen.\u00a0 Allergists can perform a skin prick test; in this test, the patient\u2019s skin is pricked and a specific allergen is introduced into the skin.\u00a0 The size of reaction to this prick would indicate the presence of an allergy.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Outdoor Allergen Avoidance<\/span>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid outdoor activities when pollen count was high<\/li>\n<li>Change clothes and shower after being outdoors<\/li>\n<li>Wash pets regularly<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>After allergies are identified, there are a number of treatment options.\u00a0 Prescription medications include antihistamines, nasal steroids, leukotriene modifiers, and mast cell modifiers.\u00a0 These medications reduce the production of the inflammatory chemicals that are released during an allergic reaction.\u00a0 For those patients who do not respond adequately to prescription medications, allergy desensitization shots also known as \u201callergy shots\u201d may be recommended.\u00a0 This procedure involves injecting a very small amount of allergen to your skin and slowly increases the amount of allergen to induce tolerance to that allergen.\u00a0 An alternative controversial method to induce tolerance is Sublingual Immmunotherapy (SLIT).\u00a0 This method involves introducing small amounts of allergens under the tongue to induce tolerance.\u00a0\u00a0 A recent study indicates that 35% of patients respond favorably and 38% of patients had no response.\u00a0 In addition, for those patients who did respond to SLIT, the response was not as effective as traditional immunotherapy.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Treatment Options<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Prescription medications<\/li>\n<li>Immunotherapy<\/li>\n<li>Sublingual
