Ragweed Hat
by macrip3, Jan 23, 2007 12:00AM
My girlfriend has a ragweed allergy. My neighbor purchased a ragweed straw hat. Could this hat aggravate my girlfriend's allergy? Also, Where can I find a list of tree and grass pollen allergies?

What symptoms does she have? Is she on any medications currently? Has a CT scan of her sinuses been done? Is she allergic to any other specific substances? Has she had allergic reactions in the past?
The hat could definitely aggravate her symptoms.
She could take oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine and see if it helps with her symptoms. She should also take steam inhalation and saline nasal drops several times a day.
If his symptoms still persist, consult a doctor because then she would need to get certain investigations done and would probably need steroid nasal sprays and a course of antibiotics.
Let us know about any other doubts that you have and post us on how she is doing.
Regards.
