Dr Marcus Bicknell, a GP at Beechdale Surgery and Clinical Lead at Nottingham City CCG, said: “Children like to be out and about
enjoying the freedom of the summer holidays. But for some, the burden of allergies can make everyday life tough, affecting social
plans and emotional wellbeing. However, there are some basic precautions you can take to reduce your child’s exposure to pollen
whilst you’re outdoors.”
Here’s how you can help:Avoid playing or walking in grassy areas and camping – particularly in the early morning and evening and
at night when pollen counts are highest.
Encourage your child to wear wraparound sunglasses to stop pollen getting into their eyes whilst playing outdoors.
Change their clothes when returning home from a day out, as pollen can cling to their hair and clothing.
Give them a bath before bed to avoid pollen transferring to their bed sheets.
If the pollen count is high (over 50) consider indoor activities and follow these steps to make your child as comfortable as possible
at home:
Keep windows and doors shut in the house. If it gets too warm, draw the curtains to keep out the sun and keep the temperature
down.Don't keep fresh flowers in the house. Hoover regularly. Don't smoke or let other people smoke in your house. Smoking and
breathing in other people's smoke will irritate the lining of your child’s nose, eyes, throat and airways, and can make their
symptoms worse.
If possible, avoid drying clothes outside. This will help prevent bringing pollen into your house.
For advice on over-the-counter remedies to help ease your child’s symptoms, visit your local pharmacy. You don’t need an
appointment and most pharmacies have private consultation rooms where you can speak to a healthcare professional.
If your child is still struggling with persistent symptoms, help your GP by listing the symptoms, when they happen, how often they
occur and if anything specific seems to trigger them. Your GP may then offer tests to identify the allergen that is causing the
symptoms.
