Hey there! Have you noticed more people sneezing and sniffling lately? 🤧 That’s because allergies are hitting harder this year! But why is that happening? Let’s find out together!
What’s Up with Allergies?
Allergies happen when our bodies react to things like pollen from plants. This year, there seems to be more pollen in the air, making allergies worse.
Windy Days and Pollen Levels
Have you ever felt the wind blowing on your face? 🌬️ Well, windy days can carry pollen all over the city! In Beijing, the wind spreads pollen far and wide, making it harder for people with allergies.
When Will Allergy Season End?
You might be wondering, “When will all this sneezing stop?” The good news is that allergy season doesn’t last forever. As the weather changes and plants stop releasing pollen, things will get better! 🌻
Expert Advice from Dr. Wang
Dr. Wang Xueyan, head of the Allergy Center at Beijing Shijitan Hospital, has some great tips for us!
- Stay indoors on windy days: Try to limit your time outside when it’s windy.
- Wear a mask: Masks can help keep pollen out of your nose and mouth.
- Wash up: After being outside, wash your hands and face to remove pollen.
- Keep windows closed: This stops pollen from coming into your home.
By following these tips, you can help reduce allergy symptoms and feel better! Remember, you’re not alone, and soon the sneezes will be gone. 😊
