Planning a day trip to explore our beautiful region? If you’re an allergy sufferer, you know that the great outdoors can be uncomfortable. Here are some essential travel items that help mitigate allergies and make the most of your adventure!
1. Allergy Medications for Your Day Trip
First things first, don’t leave for your day trip without your allergy medications. Whether it’s oral antihistamines, nasal sprays or eye drops, having your allergy meds on hand can make a big difference!
2. Pollen Mask for Your Day Trip
Protect yourself from pollen exposure by packing a pollen mask. These masks can help filter out allergens preventing them from triggering your symptoms.
3. Sunglasses for Your Day Trip
Not only do sunglasses protect your eyes from the sun, but they also act as a barrier against airborne allergens like pollen.
4. Hat
A wide-brimmed hat not only shields your face from the sun but also helps prevent pollen from settling in your hair.
5. Water Bottle
Staying hydrated is essential for overall health and can also help alleviate allergy symptoms.
6. Wet Wipes
Keep a pack of wet wipes handy to quickly clean your hands and face after being outdoors. This can help remove pollen and other allergens that may have settled on your skin.
7. Emergency Medications
If you have severe allergies or are at risk of anaphylaxis, don’t forget to bring your emergency medications, such as an epinephrine auto-injector. It’s better to be safe than sorry!
