As we move through spring and summer in the next coming months, you may notice that with rising pollen levels, your lung disease symptoms may worsen due to allergies. Allergies can exacerbate lung disease symptoms, so be sure to continue with your allergy medication regimen as prescribed by your provider and continue to carry your rescue medications as you normally would. Use the website below to help plan your week based on pollen count, type of pollen, temperature, and humidity. It can give you a glimpse of the week to help you determine the best times to be outdoors vs. indoors.
How Do I Combat This?
1. Look ahead at the forecast for the week. Plan your outdoor activities on the days that the pollen counts are the lowest. Feel free to utilize the website link below for information about pollen levels, pollen types, temperature, and humidity levels.
2. Stay inside when you know the current weather has a personal impact on your breathing.
3. Mask up to go outdoors when the pollen count is high.
4. Continue to stay properly hydrated.
5. Be sure to wash hands often and change clothing often if it has been exposed to high pollen areas.
6. Know you personal allergy triggers.
