Allergy Season

This spring, allergy season in St. Louis has been particularly tough. Here's some tips for dealing with season allergies from the American Academy of Allergy Asthma & Immunology:

  • Limit outdoor activities during days with high pollen counts.
  • Keep windows closed (at home or in the car) to keep pollens out.
  • Take a shower after coming indoors. Otherwise, pollen in your hair may bother you all night.
