Did you know that a bedroom can be a great place for allergens to hide? Soft bedding, carpets, and drapes — not to mention stuffed animals and deep closets — can all harbor dust mites, pet dander, mold spores, and even outdoor allergens like pollen that have found their way inside.
If you suffer from nasal allergies, exposure to an allergen (or allergens) can cause your nasal passages to become swollen and irritated — a reaction called "allergic inflammation". This, in turn, can cause unpleasant symptoms like sneezing, runny, itchy nose, and congestion. So it's important to try to minimize your exposure to allergens in places where you spend a lot of time — especially where you sleep.
Banish allergens from the bedroom!
