1 accumulate sundries
Debris will absorb dust and cause allergy. If you have allergies at home, you should clean your room thoroughly on a regular basis. Put only some necessary items in the room, and put the rest in the closet or storage room. When decorating, we should also adopt a simple style.
The American asthma and Allergy Foundation recommends that only the floor and walls be minimally decorated, especially the bedroom, because patients need to spend about 1 / 3 of the day here. If you really can’t stand the bare floor, you can choose to lay machine washable carpets.
2 wrong cleaning method
Dr. Anand said: “the wrong way to clean the room can cause allergies. For example, it is a big mistake not to wear a dust mask when doing housework.” The dust raised during work will be unbearable to allergic people.
The American asthma and Allergy Foundation recommends that you use a wet rag instead of dusting when cleaning; Clean the room once or twice a week with a vacuum cleaner equipped with a high-efficiency particulate air filter device; Wipe the floor instead of sweeping it; Use natural cleaning agents that do not contain irritating chemicals.
3 put away the clothes before they are dry.
It is easy for people to put clothes that are not completely dry into the wardrobe when time is tight. The humid environment will provide a perfect hotbed for the growth of mold, which is an important indoor allergen causing allergy. Therefore, be sure to store the clothes in the wardrobe after they are completely dry.
4 pressure too much force too big
Making time for recreation and relaxation can help alleviate allergic symptoms. A research result published in the Yearbook of allergy, asthma and immunology in August 2013 shows that allergy patients living under continuous stress will have recurrent symptoms, because stress will damage the immune system of the human body.
In order to manage stress more effectively, you need to identify the source of stress and find specific ways to deal with it, such as mastering time management methods, prioritizing important tasks and reducing stress through soothing exercises such as yoga, meditation and deep breathing.
5 ate some agricultural products
The research results of the American Society of allergy, asthma and Immunology show that some people will cause seasonal allergic symptoms related to pollen after eating some fresh agricultural products (such as peaches, apples and melons), which is called “pollen food syndrome” in medicine.
6 contact with third-hand smoke
Not only first-hand smoke and second-hand smoke can cause allergic reactions, but also third-hand smoke can pose a threat to allergic patients. Medical experts from Mayo Clinic in the United States believe that third-hand smoke refers to the nicotine residue adhering to the surface of clothes or indoor objects. Besides being harmful to health, it is also an allergen.
7 wear contact lenses for a long time
Contact lenses will absorb pollen and allergens, causing irritation to the eyes. Anand suggests that you can wear the daily and monthly casts and less the annual casts that take too long.
8 neglect indoor air quality
The installation of air filters and the provision of portable air purifiers help to remove indoor irritants. The American Society of allergy, asthma and Immunology suggests that people should clean or replace the filter element of the air filter every 2 to 3 months.
