Each summer you find yourself sneezing and wheezing more than you relax at the beach, have cookouts and enjoy the beautiful weather. And that's a problem. Finally, this year you've decided to not only manage your allergies but try to cure them.
Is that possible?
Let's keep it short and sweet: Unfortunately, allergies aren't curable. They're natural reactions our immune system has to histamines. Our system specifically asks antibodies, called immunoglobulin E, to fight off invading allergens, even though they're actually not harmful.
The best way to prevent allergic reactions is to manage them by proactively avoiding allergens or preparing your body to better defend against them. Here are a couple of ways to manage allergy symptoms:
1. Sublingual immunotherapy
If you have severe allergy symptoms, you can opt for sublingual immunotherapy. In the U.S., SLIT involves injecting a patient with an allergen until their immune system becomes used to it. In Europe doctors give patients a tablet. This is much safer than receiving an injection, according to Prevention, which could cause a life-threatening allergic reaction called anaphylaxis.
2. Take medicine
Whether it's over-the-counter or prescription medicine, sufferers can easily manage symptoms with medicine. It's important to take this medicine regularly so it has time to build up in your body.
3. Avoid allergies
Along with taking allergy medicine, avoid allergens as best you can. If the pollen count is high, stay indoors. Pollen is particularly bad from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
