Happy Holidays from all of us at Bluegrass Allergy Care!

Lexington offers families many fun and magical events to celebrate the holidays 🎄, and few can outshine the Winter Village at Gatton Park. This free event is open nightly from 5p to 10p and dazzles guests with an 80 ft. tall digital Christmas tree, a glowing winter playground, interactive surprises, warm cocoa and delicious holiday treats 🍭.

While outdoor events with cold air ❄️ and warm campfires add to the Christmas spirit, they pose a risk for those with asthma. If you or a family member experiences asthma symptoms in cold weather, here are some precautions to take before heading outside to celebrate the season:

1) Loosely wrap a scarf around your nose and mouth to warm the air as you breathe.

2) Take your medications as directed and always have a quick-relief inhaler available.

3) Check with your doctor about using a quick-relief inhaler 20 to 30 minutes before going out.

Asthma doesn’t have to limit enjoyment of the holiday season 🎁. For help managing asthma call Bluegrass Allergy Care at 888-651-0055 or visit bluegrassallergycare.com.

As winter temperatures drop, skin irritations go up! ❄️ Winter can take a toll on your skin, especially if you or your child have eczema (atopic dermatitis). The dry air and spending more time around indoor triggers can lead to stubborn, uncomfortable flare-ups. At Bluegrass Allergy Care, we offer new, advanced treatments to help calm eczema and bring lasting relief, so you can enjoy winter without the itch.

Not sure if it’s eczema or just dry skin? We can help you find out and get you feeling comfortable again. Call 888-651-0055 or visit BluegrassAllergyCare.com to schedule an appointment today.

It’s that time of year again— spooky decorations are appearing in front yards 👻, morning air feels a bit crisper ❄️, and pumpkin spice can be found in everything from drinks to desserts and even toothpaste! With so much pumpkin spice around you might wonder, is it possible to be allergic to it? Well, pumpkin spice is made from a variety of ingredients including cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves. If you are allergic to any of these common herbs and spices, then you would also be allergic to pumpkin spice. Fortunately for those who love pumpkin spice, an allergic reaction from it is rare. Unfortunately for those who can’t stand the holiday flavor, it’s still going to be finding its way into more foods and products each year. Pumpkin spice ice cream anyone? 🍦

Caring for a child who can’t verbally express how they are feeling is incredibly challenging. Whether they’re very young or have a speech-limiting disability, it takes patience and a deep understanding of non-verbal cues to know when something's wrong.

At Bluegrass Allergy Care, our allergists are specially trained to work with both children and adults who have limited or no speech. We take the time to listen, observe, and uncover the cause of allergy symptoms in speech-limited patients so we can bring them real relief and a big smile.
