Three Tips for Overcoming Spring Allergies in Houston

April showers bring May flowers, and also sneezes. With spring arriving here are three tips from Better Health that can help defeat, or at least minimize, seasonal allergies.

Put those shades on when you’re outdoors. Sunglasses protect your eyes against more than just the sun. They’ll keep dust and other irritants out.

Shower and wash your hair before bedtime. This helps remove any pollen clinging to you overnight and prevents it from aggravating your symptoms.

Keep your doors and windows closed. Allergens don’t need much of an invitation to “intrude”. Run the air conditioning if you need to cool down.

"We have a special needs daughter who needed her foot looked at. Thankful that Affinity accepted her Medicaid first of all. Staff was nice, did not have a long wait, doctor was knowledgeable and understanding with our daughter, which means a lot. She was able to get x-rays done on her foot and received the results before we left. A great place to go on short notice."

"Facility was very clean. Very short wait. The doctor and x-ray tech were great!!"

"Fast and friendly. Was in and out in about an hour, and the PA and nurses were great. Much better experience than the ER."

"The Affinity care clinic in Galveston was wonderful. I walked in Memorial Day (without an appointment) and was seen by a very courteous and helpful staff. I highly recommend them."

"My experience at this urgent care facility was a pleasant one. I brought my daughter in due to an allergic reaction. The staff members there were awesome!"
