HOME REMEDIES FOR AN ALLERGIC REACTION?- 2

A person who is pregnant or has a liver disorder should consult their doctor before taking antihistamines. Nasal decongestants Nasal decongestant pills, liquids, and sprays can also help reduce stuffy, swollen sinuses and related symptoms, such as a sore throat or coughing. However, decongestant medications should not be taken continuously for more than 72 hours. Nasal decongestants are available over the counter and online. Anti-inflammatory medication Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs) may also be used to help temporarily reduce pain, swelling, and cramping caused by allergies. Avoid the allergen The best way to treat and prevent allergic reactions is to know what triggers the reaction and stay away from it, especially food allergens. When this is not possible or realistic, using antihistamines or decongestants when in contact with allergens can help to treat the symptoms. Use a saline sinus rinse A saline sinus rinse may treat symptoms such as a runny or itchy nose. When allergies cause sinus problems, the American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology (AAAAI) recommend a person rinse their sinuses with saline. This can remove allergens and clear the airways. The AAAAI recommend the following saline recipe: • mix 3 teaspoons of salt (without iodide) with 1 teaspoon of baking soda • add 1 teaspoon of this mixture to 8 ounces of boiled water • dissolve the mixture in the water then use as a saline rinse Sinus rinsing devices can be purchased online or from a pharmacy. Treating environmental allergies For airborne allergens, such as pollen, dust, and mold spores, additional treatment options include: • throat lozenges with soothing ingredients, such as menthol, honey, or ginger • shower and wash all clothing after being exposed to an allergen • exercise for a few minutes to help reduce nasal congestion Treating allergies on the skin For allergic reactions that cause skin symptoms, including those associated with allergens found in animal saliva, poisonous plants, drugs, chemicals and metals, additional treatment options include: • Topical corticosteroid creams or tablets. Corticosteroids contain steroids that reduce inflammation and itching. Mild forms of these creams can be found online, and a doctor can prescribe stronger versions. • Moisturizing creams. Emollient creams with soothing ingredients, such as calamine can treat skin reactions.
