Spring returns to the earth, a hundred flowers are blooming, and people are welcoming this colorful season. Although the Spring Festival is a warm and blooming season, many people are allergic to pollen. So how to prevent pollen allergy in spring?
In spring, all kinds of flowers are competing to open, and a variety of high molecular compounds in pollen cells are the strong allergens. According to statistics, there are more than 100 kinds of plants that cause pollen allergy, such as elm, poplar, willow, phoenix tree, oak and some fruit trees.
The results showed that the smaller the pollen grains, the more serious the allergy.
If you often have the following symptoms in spring, you may have pollen allergy:
Conjunctivitis -- itchy, painful and often tearful eyeball conjunctiva; rhinitis -- inflammation and swelling of nasal mucosa, itchy nose, blockage of nose, continuous sneezing and clear nasal mucus; rash -- itchy skin, ears, mouth and palate, etc., with rubella on the skin, or small red spots bitten by mosquitoes and eczema; bronchial asthma -- suffocation in the chest, dyspnea, etc. The secretion from the nose of allergic patients is relatively clear and thin, not as thick as the general cold. The symptoms are more serious in the morning than in the evening. The dry and windy weather will aggravate. The indoor feeling is slightly better than the outdoor.
There is a genetic relationship between allergy and some people. If people with allergic constitution are exposed to allergens under the conditions of overeating, physical deterioration and mental stress, they will easily cause allergy. Many people think that allergy is nothing to be afraid of. In fact, if we do not pay attention to prevention and treatment, it will not only induce allergic diseases, but also weaken the immune system, leading to body temperature rise, myocarditis, gastritis, and also easy to cause various bacterial or viral infections.
