Trees are in full bloom. Gorgeous cherry blossoms and wisteria are filling the air with their beautiful scent &#8211; and filling our noses and eyes with their, aah-aaah-aaaachooo! Pollen! For allergy sufferers like me and my daughter, this is not a fun time. You may have already started with that sneezy, runny nose, congested, itchy eyes, scratchy throat, wheezy cough, fatigued, brain fog kind of feeling! Sounds miserable, right?<\/p>\n<h2>How Do I Know if My Child Has Allergies?<\/h2>\n<p>We\u2019re talking about environmental allergies. Not food allergies or food sensitivities\/intolerances (a topic for another post). Apart from the obvious nose and eye allergy symptoms, the following are some signs that your child may have allergies:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Constant runny\/stuffy nose (year-round symptoms are more suspicious for year-round allergens, like dust mites).<\/li>\n<li>The \u201callergic salute\u201d \u2013 constantly rubbing the nose in an upward direction, often causing a horizontal crease across the tip of the nose.<\/li>\n<li><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-69 size-medium aligncenter\" title=\"Arch Dermatol. 2012;148(9):1037-1039. doi:10.1001\/archdermatol.2012.1625\" src=\"https:\/\/biz130.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/nasal-crease_JAMA-300x270.png\" alt=\"Arch Dermatol. 2012;148(9):1037-1039. doi:10.1001\/archdermatol.2012.1625\" width=\"300\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/nasal-crease_JAMA-300x270.png 300w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/nasal-crease_JAMA-768x690.png 768w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/nasal-crease_JAMA-1024x920.png 1024w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/nasal-crease_JAMA.png 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u201cAllergic shiners\u201d \u2013 those persistently dark circles under your child\u2019s eyes that don\u2019t go away no matter how much sleep they get.<\/li>\n<li>Mouth-breathing or snoring \u2013 unless they\u2019re sick with a cold, kids should NOT snore!<\/li>\n<li>Persistent cough, especially when laying down, most likely from postnasal drip pooling in the back of the throat.<\/li>\n<li>Frequent throat clearing , especially first thing in the morning.<\/li>\n<li>Asthma.<\/li>\n<li>Eczema or other frequent itchy rashes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How Do I Know What My Child is Allergic To?<\/h2>\n<p>When possible, find out what your child is allergic to. This can be done through blood or skin-scratch testing, through your pediatrician or an allergist. Blood tests are now just as accurate as skin-scratch testing, and one advantage is that many different allergens can be tested for with the same blood draw. Depending on the size of your child\u2019s back, skin-scratch testing may take several visits, take over an hour each visit, and be super uncomfortable and itchy.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re nervous about having your child\u2019s blood drawn, ask your doctor about a prescription numbing cream called EMLA \u2013 works like a charm. My 4 year-old son sat happily through his blood draw, watching Dora on my phone while the phlebotomist did her thing.<\/p>\n<p>There are also other less invasive, \u201cenergetic\u201d techniques that can be explored with your holistic practitioner. You may want to discuss with your child&#8217;s doctor which testing method would be most appropriate for your child.<\/p>\n<p>If you know what your child is allergic to, it makes it easier to try to stay clear.<\/p>\n<h2>What is the &#8220;Bucket Theory&#8221; of allergies?<\/h2>\n<p>Let&#8217;s say your child is allergic to dust mites, Timothy grass, cat dander, and horse hair. Now imagine a bucket that is more or less filled depending on what allergens your child is exposed to. When the bucket is overflowing, that&#8217;s when your child will have symptoms &#8211; whatever symptoms she experiences, whether it&#8217;s runny nose, itchy eyes, eczema flare, wheezing, snoring, fatigue, or just plain grouchiness. You&#8217;ve implemented dust mite protection as best as you can, but your child is likely exposed to dust mites on a daily basis to some level, so let&#8217;s say that at baseline, your child&#8217;s bucket is about 1\/4-filled. Now let&#8217;s imagine that it&#8217;s springtime and Timothy grass is blooming, AND your child has just gone on an outdoor-education field trip with her school, so her bucket is 1\/2-filled. OK, NOW imagine that your child has a play date with her bestie, who just got a long-haired cat, and whose brother comes home covered in horse hair after his horseback riding lesson. Oh boy! Now your child&#8217;s bucket is brimming just to the top, splashing over just a bit. Now imagine that your child&#8217;s allergy bucket capacity has shrunk &#8211; the &#8220;brim&#8221; of her allergy bucket has lowered because she&#8217;s tired, or sick, or has had too much sugar, or has exerted herself too much, or has just gotten super excited or super angry.<\/p>\n<p>Now your child is <em>UNDERWATER!<\/em><\/p>\n<h2>10 Ways to Lower Your Child\u2019s Allergy \u201cBucket\u201d<\/h2>\n<p>You want to minimize avoidable allergens (i.e., dogs, cats, dust mites) in order to keep your child\u2019s allergy &#8220;bucket&#8221; low, so that when your child is faced with unavoidable allergens (i.e., pollen), your child\u2019s bucket doesn&#8217;t &#8220;overflow&#8221; and cause a flood of allergy symptoms.<\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Avoid going outdoors on high pollen-count days. (HA!!! Try telling that to your kid!).<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Keep house and car windows closed, especially on windy, high pollen-count days.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. After coming in from outdoors:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Take shoes off at the front door to prevent tracking allergens into the house.<\/li>\n<li>Remove as many sources of trapped pollen as possible from your child. That way your child isn\u2019t continually shaking pollen into their eyes and nose even while indoors:\n<ul>\n<li>Take off their jacket at the front door.<\/li>\n<li>Change their shirt.<\/li>\n<li>Wash their face, focusing on eyebrows and eyelashes.<\/li>\n<li>Take a wet comb through their hair, or wash it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>4. Carry wet wipes to wash her face (especially eyelashes, eyebrows, and around nose) and wet hair frequently when playing outside, especially on grass or around trees.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Use HEPA air purifiers for your home, especially in your child\u2019s room or wherever he spends the most time.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Keep the air filters in your house clean.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>7. Vacuum often, and use a vacuum with a HEPA filter.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>8. Irrigate your nose to remove allergens daily, if not more frequently.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>This can be done with sinus rinses, like a neti pot, Nasopure, or Neilmed sinus rinse, or saline sprays like Xlear.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-68\" src=\"https:\/\/biz130.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Xlear\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Xlear.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-67\" src=\"https:\/\/biz130.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neti-Pot.jpg\" alt=\"Neti Pot\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neti-Pot.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neti-Pot-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-66\" src=\"https:\/\/biz130.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Nasopure\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Nasopure.jpg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-75\" src=\"https:\/\/biz130.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neilmed-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Neilmed\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neilmed-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neilmed-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/vps37072.inmotionhosting.com\/~healt472\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/Neilmed.jpg 355w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>9.

All other stuffies can sit on a shelf or stay at the foot of the bed.<\/li>\n<li>If washing is not an option for that favorite stuffy, then you can put it in a pillow case and run it in the high heat setting of your dryer for 15 minutes to kill the dust mites. Freezing the stuffy for 24 hours can also kill dust mites, although it won\u2019t get rid of other allergens like pollen that may have drifted in from an open window.
