早就听说咱们国人到美国后过不了几年就会过敏，一般五年是个坎，很少有人能扛过五年。记得以前有朋友来美后过敏到需要去打针，花粉季节一来，把自己封闭在家里，连班都没法上，他的痛苦我体会不到，只能言语上安慰安慰。
我来美五年后都没有出现很厉害的过敏情况，偶尔发过一次过敏性鼻炎，用了喷鼻剂后也缓解了。现在都过去十年了，我以为自己对美国环境产生抗体，不用再担心过敏问题，未曾想，该来的还是来了，逃不过这个宿命啊。
今年过敏得异常厉害。
上周五开始，眼睛痒得发疯，恨不得把眼球都揉出来，此时我还没有太在意。
周六五点多起床，带两儿子驱车一个多小时参加泳队比赛，回来后除了眼睛依然痒得挠心，鼻子也堵了。小儿子眼睛不痒，但是鼻塞严重；大儿子眼痒，鼻子有一点点塞，但不影响睡眠。娃爹说我跟老二肯定是感冒了。我郁闷啊，前段时间发烧感冒让我整整折腾了快一个月才好清楚，还没消停几天怎么又感冒了。说老实话，当时症状跟感冒还挺像，头昏脑胀，鼻塞难忍。当天晚上，根本没法睡觉，我跟老二轮番起来擤鼻涕，安静的夜里就听见我俩此起彼伏的浓重呼吸声，到了夜里三点，实在受不了，我跟老二一起吃了抗过敏药，虽然娃爹说是感冒，但是我总怀疑是过敏。鼻子问题依然存在，眼睛有所缓解。五点多又起床，驱车去第二天的比赛，我跟老二根本一夜都没睡。我用洗鼻壶冲洗鼻腔，冲洗后鼻子总算通了点气。娃爹开车，我就一直在车里睡啊睡啊，到了目的地，我头昏啊，估计是抗过敏药吃的副作用，我连下车的力气都没了，让娃爹带孩子入场，我继续在车里睡。就这样一直睡到九点半，要不是太阳出来，晒到车子，我热醒了，估计我还继续睡。
终于熬到比赛结束，回程途中，我仍在车里昏睡，吩咐娃爹，路上看见Target停车，我要去买喷鼻剂，买完准备喷，发现那个包装需要剪刀才能打开，你们自行脑补一下我当时急不可耐的样子吧。好容易熬到家，赶紧喷鼻子啊，喷完好一点，但是还是未能完全通畅啊！直到我洗了个澡以后，鼻子彻底通了，实在太舒服了，我倒床一直睡到傍晚。劝老二也喷点，他最怕洗鼻喷鼻，这次被鼻塞折磨得够呛，临睡前发好大脾气，只能从了我，喷了一下后，他立马开心了。我的个神啊！现代医药真是救命啊！
周一是Memorial Day，之前就计划好带娃出去hiking，又得开长途。抱怨造车的怎么不把汽车里的过滤装置弄好点，至少弄个可以剔除过敏源的滤芯吧，毕竟过敏的人不在少数啊。有谁知道哪款车有这么周到的设计，我就买这款车。为了减轻过敏刺激，我只好戴上了N95的口罩，全副武装地出发了。

Hi Steemians！ Do you bothered by allergy? The allergy related to the environment. After stayed in America for 10 years I got this problem and it gets worse and worse.
Last weekend I felt like I had a very severe cold. My head was swimming and my nose was like being stuffed with a cotton. I can't sleep the whole night. I almost got crazy. My younger boy had the same symptom as me. But I was more lucky than him because he had to go to the swim meet next day.
During the meet I slept in the car for two hours until the car was hot. I went into the swimming pool to check my kids. Not only my younger son but another teammate of his got allergy too. That boy's eyes were swollen and his Dad went to the nearest store to buy allergy relief eye drops. Oh, my God! Allergy season started.
In the afternoon we drove to Target to buy Nasal Spray. You can't imagine it! The Nasal Spray almost sold out. I got the one from the last two. By using it I felt much better.
I want to share some products that I used to relief allergy.
喷鼻剂一直带着，关键时刻得用。到今天，鼻子在逐渐恢复，过敏药我尽量避免吃了，不知道为啥，我对过敏药反应太强烈，两个儿子都还好。
现在跟大家分享一下外用药经验：
如果是轻微过敏，鼻子咽喉不舒服，可以用洗鼻器每晚清洗鼻腔，一般效果都不错。比如我对泳池的水会轻微过敏，所以每次游完泳，我会用洗鼻器清洗鼻腔，保证剔除掉过敏源。
最普通的洗鼻器是这样的
一个小茶壶，里面装水，放入配好的粉剂。
If you just slightly allergic to pollens, grass seeds or some other things you can use this nasal cleaner. It is like a pot but very small. By adding the powder to the water you will not feel any stimulation. I am allergic to the pool water so after swimming I usually use this pot to clean my nose. It really works.
冲洗方法，从一边鼻孔送水，直到水从另一边鼻孔流出来，持续这个冲洗过程，直到一壶水用完。不用担心呛水，或者有任何不舒服。第一次用的人会怕怕，用过一次就知道了。
除了茶壶版，还有一些其他洗鼻器，原理都一样，造型有所不同。市面上也有便利版，药水已经配好，直接喷的，比如我家儿子用的就是这款：
This bottle nasal cleaner is very convenient. Just open it and spray. My son love it and you can carry it and use it in anywhere.
直接开盖喷，携带方便，随时都能用。
这是洗鼻子的，里面不含药品，可以使劲洗，不用担心任何副作用。
喷鼻子的我强力推荐这款，昨天Target都抢断货了，看来这个长周末，过敏的人陡增，也不知道是什么植物让大家发疯了。泳队一起比赛的孩子里有一个到了比赛场地，眼睛都肿了，也就一个小时车程的时间。
If nasal cleaner can't help you a lot. I am afraid you need to use some medicine spray. This one is my favorite. It contains fluticasone. You have to read the instruction carefully and followed by it.
这个含激素，不过还算温和，但是使用量要把握好，随药品附带的说明书有详细的用量介绍，使用前请仔细阅读。
还有基于植物成份的过敏性鼻炎喷剂，这个我正在研究，等亲自体验过效果后再跟大家分享。以上列出的产品都是我亲自试过的，也是经过过敏患友们互相首肯的产品，正在被过敏困扰的朋友们，希望这篇介绍能帮到你。
There are some other spry based on plants. I start to do some researches. When I test them I would like to share them with you guys. Hope this information can help you. let the allergy season pass quickly!
