The allergy patients of Austria must prepare: after the rainy spring weeks there is now a threat of an explosive increase in the grass pollen tax. While the cotton season is already ending, the particularly intensive phase of the grass blossom is on the hands.
The many precipitation has excavated the release so far, but the growth of the plants is being fed. If now dry and sunny weather is capable, the Austrian Pollen Information Service said in a broadcast on Wednesday. The cotton season is now over.
Intensive graspollen season is threatening
The first relevant grass pollen concentrations were measured this year between the end of April and the beginning of May. Midden -May was even a first loading top before the weather caused temporary relief.
“Now the sun is coming and it remains dry for a long time, a sudden increase in pollen loads. Grasses often free their pollen,” explains Markus Berger, Ent Doctor and head of the Austrian Pollen Information Service (public transport). “We therefore assume an above -average intensive grass pollen season.”
Hundreds of thousands of affected Austrians
Gräser Pollen are among the most important allergy world -time. In Austria, hundreds of thousands of people suffer from their blossoms every year. The season lasts from the beginning of May to August. This makes the Graspollen flight the longest pollen season that is most affected by allergy patients.
Freshly cut grass can also cause problems: “Some allergy patients respond to the juice of plants with allergic symptoms when contacting the skin,” Berger said.
Finally about Boompollolens season
Bowling allergy patients can breathe a sigh of relief at the end of the season. Berger recommends that people with symptoms to clarify and treat them, because asthma can also develop from an allergy. “In the stress -free period, allergy patients whose symptoms are no longer controllable, start with therapy to equip the immune system and therefore optimally prepare for the next allergy season,” the doctor recommends.
Experts recommend therapy
According to public transport, the best tools are allergen -specific immunotherapy (AIT), because they not only fight symptoms, but also the cause of the allergy, it said in the broadcast. A small amount of the allergy -supreme substance (allergen) is regularly administered to the body for a longer period – or as a tablet, drop or spray. So the immune system slowly gets used to the allergy -trigger and reacts less sensitive to it.
