It’s Time to Start Thinking about Fall Allergies

by Leave a Comment

Summer is slowly winding down, students are headed back to the classrooms, and those unforgiving fall allergies are starting up again. If you haven’t already done so, you should prepare NOW for fall allergies. Recently, many of you have woken up to sneezing, coughing, itchy eyes, or a runny nose. The biggest contributor to allergies during the fall is ragweed pollen, which is dispersed into the air during mid-to-late August. The wind, which can carry ragweed up to 100 miles from its source, can make every allergy season worst.

Here are some tips from Allergy Medical Group and the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology to help you transition to the next season:

  • Use the pollen count to plan out your day. Maybe instead of exercising outdoors, consider working out indoors during high pollen count days.
  • Close house and car windows to keep pollen out.
  • Clean areas within your home that may be exposed to pollen and other allergens, such as hallways near outside doors and windows.
  • Place clothes that have been worn outside into the laundry right away, and remember to take regular showers to wash off pollen.
  • See your allergist to plan which medications are best for you. Some medications need to be taken now for the best results. 

Fight back the miserable runny and stuffy nose with Allergy Medical Group. Make your appointment now at one of our clinics to get help this allergy season, and we’ll see you at your next appointment.

We’ve been happily seeing more patients through the eVisit platform recently, and we’ve been receiving tremendous positive feedback. For those who are unfamiliar with eVisit, Allergy Medical Group offers our patients video appointments with our providers. They’ve been telling us that they love the convenience of seeing one of our doctors without commuting to one of our three locations during their busy schedule. If the doctor determines that you need to come see us, we can always schedule an in-person visit.

How do I schedule for my first eVisit appointment?
 
1. Go to allergymedgroup.com and click on eVisit
2. Click on SCHEDULE AN EVISIT
3. Click on “I don’t have an account” and enter your email address and create a password
4. Fill out your personal information along with any other required information
5. Schedule your eVisit! 
 
It’s that easy! See and chat with one of our providers through a 100% HIPPA compliant video to receive quick and easy treatment.  Contact us if you have any questions. 
 
We’ll see you at your next appointment. 
 
**eVisit appointments are not for medical emergencies. Call 911 or go to your local emergency room if you believe you have a medical or metal health emergency.
