With the final weeks of school approaching, it’s time to enroll in summer camps! If your child has allergies, taking a few precautions can help ensure a fun and worry-free camp experience:

1) 📃Describe your child’s allergy and specific symptoms on the camp application form.

2) 💊Check the expiration date of all medications and get new ones if needed.

3) Remind your child to tell an adult immediately if they begin to feel an allergic reaction starting 😟, and always know where the emergency medication is, or which adults have access to it.

Parents of children who play sports are an important part of the team 🏆. They get the kids to practice, provide their equipment, cheer them on at games and encourage them through losses 🤗. They give their student athletes everything they need to perform their best. Springtime sports like track and field, baseball and softball ⚾ come with the added challenge of being outside when pollen is thick in the air, triggering allergic reactions and taking the fun out of sports for both players and supporting family members.

For over 25 years Bluegrass Allergy Care has been helping Central Kentucky families find allergy relief so they can enjoy springtime activities and stay in the game 😀. Call (888) 651-0055 or visit bluegrassallergycare.com to make an appointment and score the winning run against allergies.

Is your child signaling that something is wrong? 🖐️Young children have a unique way of communicating distress. Without knowing the signs, allergic reactions could go unnoticed by parents. Very young children may signal an allergic reaction by putting their hands in their mouths or scratching at their tongues. Those old enough to talk may say things like:
• It feels like something is poking my tongue.
• My tongue is hot.
• My lips feel tight.
• My throat feels thick.
Bluegrass Allergy Care provides allergy testing and treatment for all members of the family and specializes in treating young children.😊 We take the time to listen, observe, and uncover the cause of allergy symptoms in children so we can bring them real relief and a big smile. Call 888-651-0055 for an appointment today or visit BluegrassAllergyCare.com.

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.

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? 🍦
