Pollen counts could be higher depending on where you live in the country, and they could increase depending on the type of weather your region is experiencing. New Mexicans are encountering this first-hand as heavy rains early in the year encouraged weeds to rapidly grow and send off plumes of pollen all at once.
Dr. Sam Wang recently noticed that certain areas in the state currently have low pollen counts, but that sufferers are still sneezing and wheezing. He blames the rapid growth of weeds. Unfortunately for many in the area, it's not likely to let up anytime soon.
Understanding how allergens differ from one area to another can help people who want to move to a new state. Wang says that many people are unaware that one state may have more allergens they are allergic to than the one they currently reside in.
"Many people move to a new place with new environmental pollens. The first year, they might not have any allergy symptoms, but after one year, two or three years, then they develop a new allergy to the new stuff," Wang noted.
The way for sufferers to overcome new allergies is for them to take greater precautions. Stay inside during peak hours of the day when allergies are at their worst. Purchase new appliances which help better block allergies from entering your home and clean your residence more consistently. Instead of opening the windows, turn on the AC.
