The worst city for #allergy sufferers is in #Kansas #shorts #short Wichita Eagle 2024-03-27 | Wichita has been named the worst city for allergy sufferers - again.The Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America analyzed the worst cities for allergies by measuring pollen counts, the use of medicine and the number of allergy specialists in the area.The Sedgwick County extension office says the majority of plant-related allergies in the area come from tree pollen. The trees most likely producing that pollen are cedars, maples, elms and ash trees.The Mayo Clinic recommends using an over-the-counter remedy if you’re struggling with seasonal allergies, like oral antihistamines or nasal sprays.You can also rinse out your sinuses with saline solution or a homemade rinse, which should include a quart of water, 1.5 teaspoons of canning salt and 1 teaspoon of baking soda.You should only use distilled, sterile or water that was previously boiled for a sinus rinse.To avoid allergies as much as possible, the Mayo Clinic also recommends staying inside during windy days, showering after being outside, washing your clothes after being outdoors, not to hang laundry outside and avoiding outdoor chores, like weeding and lawn mowing.Photos from McClatchy archives#Wichita #Kansas #Local #spring #allergy #allergies
