HealthTip
Managing springtime allergies
Limit early-morning outdoor activi-ties, when pollen is usually emitted. Stay indoors as much as possible when humidity and pollen counts are high. Enlist someone else to mow the lawn, since that stirs up pollen and mold. Close windows at night to help keep pollen out. Take medications as prescribed by your doctor or discuss over-the-counter alternatives with your pharmacist. Some folks plan vacations to pollen-free places during spring. To check daily pollen and mold counts, go to the National Allergy Bureau at www.aaaai.org.
