Guidance & Preventive Measures

We provide practical and effective lifestyle recommendations tailored to your allergy triggers:

• Dust Mite Control: Use dust-proof pillow covers, wash bedding weekly in hot water and reduce indoor humidity.

• Pollution & Pollen Avoidance: Keep windows closed during peak pollen hours, avoid outdoor activity in dusty environments and use masks when needed.

• Pet Allergy Management: Limit direct contact, keep pets out of the bedroom and wash hands/clothes after handling them.

• Mold Prevention: Improve ventilation in bathrooms, avoid damp areas and clean surfaces frequently to prevent fungal growth.

• Fragrance & Smoke Avoidance: Stay away from strong perfumes, incense sticks, cigarette smoke or aerosol sprays that worsen symptoms.

• Nasal Hygiene: Regular saline nasal irrigation helps clear allergens, reduce inflammation and improve breathing.

• Air Quality Improvement: Using air purifiers, keeping homes dust-free and ensuring proper ventilation help minimise exposure.

When to Consider Medical Advice

Consult an ENT specialist if you notice:

• Symptoms persisting despite preventive efforts

• Dependence on antihistamines or nasal sprays for long periods

• Recurrent sinus infections or breathing issues

Prevention plays a key role in long-term allergy control. By understanding your triggers and adopting tailored lifestyle practices, you can significantly reduce symptoms and enjoy better daily comfort.

Long-term Care & Follow-up

Sustained allergy control requires consistency and periodic assessment:

• Regular follow-ups to adjust medication and reassess triggers

• Considering immunotherapy for long-term reduction of allergy sensitivity

• Maintaining a clean, well-ventilated living environment
