Health problems that occur in the summer, especially during the holidays, are unpleasant and difficult to bear. That is why it is good to follow certain rules so that our body does not suffer. Dr. Marius Iordache, a specialist in Allergology and Clinical Immunology, who provides online consultations within the Digital Clinics telemedicine platform, gave us a series of useful tips to protect our health in the summer.
Heat, insect bites, rhinitis. These are just a few of the things that can cause us health problems in the summer. How do we protect ourselves so as not to have problems in the warm months due to allergies? Here is what Dr. Marius Iordache advises us:
“In the case of insect bites, it is good to always have a topical antihistamine with us (for example, Fenistil gel) and an antihistamine that can be administered systemically (Aerius). In the first phase, we can resort to these, but if we observe the installation of edema on the face, lips, eyelids, an allergological consultation is indicated because in more severe cases it can reach anaphylactic shock”, says the doctor.
In the case of other conditions (rhinitis, conjunctivitis, bronchial asthma, etc.), first of all, in order to know what to avoid, it is good to have a specialized evaluation. This way we can prevent the evolution of the disease and establish an appropriate treatment early.
“It often happens that some patients resort to self-medication and notice that it no longer has an effect, and the condition evolves. In addition to this aspect, identifying the allergen also allows us to establish opportunities for desensitization through specific allergen immunotherapy”, explains Dr. Iordache.
-not to use the same clothing items that are used outdoors inside the home
-washing exposed areas or the entire body
-using pollen filters in air conditioning systems
-going outside immediately after rain
"However, it is often necessary to institute a drug treatment to keep the symptoms under control," concludes Dr. Marius Iordache.
