🌿 Your Allergies Aren’t “Just Seasonal” — Here’s What That Means 🤧

Do your allergy symptoms stick around even when pollen counts are low? You might be dealing with more than just seasonal allergies.

👉 Year-round triggers like dust mites, pet dander, and mold can cause ongoing congestion, sneezing, itchy eyes, or even worsen asthma symptoms — especially when you’re spending more time indoors.

Allergies that go untreated can lead to chronic inflammation, sinus infections, and constant discomfort. But the good news? You don’t have to live with it!

At PURE Allergy & Asthma, we help identify your exact triggers and create personalized treatment plans — including allergy testing and immunotherapy — so you can breathe easier all year long.

💙 Call us today at (267) 396-7873 to schedule your allergy evaluation.

Humidity vs. Dry Air: Finding the Right Balance

As the weather cools and heaters turn on, do your allergies, asthma, or dry skin seem worse? The culprit might be indoor humidity!

🌬️ Too Dry?
Can cause itchy skin, nosebleeds, and coughing.
💧 Too Humid?
Can lead to mold and dust mites that trigger allergies.

✅ Aim for 40–50% humidity — comfortable for breathing and gentle on skin.

If symptoms persist, an allergist can help uncover hidden triggers and create a personalized plan for long-term relief.

Don’t wait until symptoms worsen — take the first step toward breathing easier today.

🌬️ Skipping Your Asthma Controller Inhaler? 🌬️

🥦 Going Vegetarian with Alpha-Gal Syndrome (AGS)? You're Not Alone. 🌱

Being told you’re allergic to red meat—especially because of a tick bite—can be overwhelming. With Alpha-Gal Syndrome (AGS), it’s not just steaks and burgers off the menu. Even hidden ingredients like gelatin, animal-based flavorings, and certain supplements can trigger reactions. 😬

That’s why many AGS patients choose to go vegetarian or even vegan—not just for safety, but for peace of mind. 💚

✨ Good news: You can eat well, feel full, and stay healthy on an alpha-gal-friendly vegetarian diet.
✅ Safe protein options: tofu, lentils, quinoa, beans
✅ Watch out for: gelatin, natural flavors, and animal-based enzymes
✅ Read those labels—and when in doubt, stick to whole, fresh foods

🛒 Pro tip: Use apps like Spoonful or Fig to help you navigate shopping, and always double-check ingredients at restaurants.

💬 Living with AGS means staying alert, but it doesn’t mean giving up flavor or joy in food.

😮‍💨 Can your nasal spray make your stuffy nose worse?

Over-the-counter sprays like Afrin® can bring fast relief—but if you use them more than 3–4 days in a row, you may trigger the rebound effect (rhinitis medicamentosa). Instead of clearing your nose, overuse can cause even more congestion, creating a cycle that’s hard to break.

🚫 Risks of overusing sprays:
• Worsening congestion
• Dependence on the spray
• Poor sleep
• Hiding real issues like allergies or sinus problems

✅ Safer alternatives:
• Saline sprays/rinses
• Nasal steroid sprays (prescribed)
• Allergy management
• Humidifiers

👉 Don’t get stuck in the rebound cycle. PURE Allergy & Asthma can help you find safe, lasting relief. Call us at 267-396-7873 to schedule an appointment.

🩵 When was the last time you cleaned or replaced your inhaler or spacer?

Your allergy and asthma devices need regular care to keep working their best! Over time, buildup, moisture, or bacteria can make them less effective — and even trigger symptoms.

✅ Inhalers: Replace when the dose counter hits 0.
✅ Spacers: Wash weekly, replace every 6–12 months.
✅ Nebulizers: Clean after each use, replace parts regularly.

Keeping your devices clean means better breathing, better control, and fewer flare-ups. 🌬️

If you’re not sure whether your device needs replacing or a cleaning refresh — we can help!

💉 Vaccines & Asthma: What You Should Know!

If you have asthma or allergies, vaccines are especially important to protect your lungs from serious infections like the flu, pneumonia, and COVID-19. 💨

✅ Flu shot: Every year
✅ Pneumonia vaccine: Helps prevent lung infections
✅ COVID-19 booster: Reduces risk of complications

It’s safe to get vaccinated even during allergy season — and doing so can help you stay healthy, active, and in control of your breathing. 🌸

If you’re unsure which vaccines you need, we can help!

🌩️ Did you know thunderstorms can trigger asthma attacks?

When storms roll in, pollen grains can burst into tiny particles that go deep into the lungs — causing sudden wheezing, coughing, or shortness of breath. This is known as “Thunderstorm Asthma.”

If you’ve noticed your breathing or allergy symptoms get worse during storms, don’t ignore it. Our team at Pure Allergy & Asthma can help you stay protected and breathe easier — rain or shine!

At PURE Allergy & Asthma, Dr. Neetu Dhawan helps families create customized allergy and asthma action plans.

✍️ Dermatographia: When Your Skin “Writes” Back

Ever noticed red, raised lines appear on your skin after light scratching or pressure — almost like your skin is writing? You might have dermatographia, also known as “skin writing.”

This common condition affects about 5% of people and occurs when the skin releases too much histamine after minor irritation, causing redness, itching, and swelling. The reaction usually fades within 15–30 minutes — but it can be uncomfortable and frustrating.

🌡️ Common Triggers
Dermatographia can flare up due to:
Tight clothing or rough fabrics
Scratching or rubbing the skin
Emotional stress or anxiety
Temperature changes (hot showers, cold air)
Infections or illness

💊 Managing Dermatographia
Although harmless, dermatographia can be controlled with simple steps:
✅ Daily non-sedating antihistamines (like cetirizine or fexofenadine)
✅ Avoid triggers — wear loose, soft clothing and use gentle cleansers
✅ Manage stress — practice relaxation or mindfulness
✅ Moisturize regularly to protect the skin barrier

For stubborn cases, treatments like H2 blockers, leukotriene inhibitors, or Xolair (omalizumab) may be recommended.

💚 You Don’t Have to “Live with the Itch”
If you’re struggling with frequent hives or unexplained skin reactions, our team at Pure Allergy & Asthma can help identify your triggers and create a personalized treatment plan.

📞 Call (267) 396-7873 or message us to schedule your appointment today — and take the next step toward calmer, healthier skin!
