What lifestyle changes help with hay fever and other allergies?
The best way to prevent any sort of allergic reaction is to avoid the substance (dust, pet fur, and hair, insect bites, food allergies) that you're allergic to if you can. If you have hay fever, try not to spend too much time outside when the pollen count is high. Shower and change your clothes after you have been outside to wash off pollen. Wear a mask to cover your nose, mouth and wear wraparound sunglasses to stop dust from getting into your eyes whenever you step outside.
