Trees, grasses, and weeds release pollen into the air. This causes allergic reactions in some people, like sneezing, runny nose, and itchy eyes.
In Medgidia, Romania, pollen seasons vary. Tree pollen appears in March and April, peaking in late March. Grass pollen emerges in May and June, peaking in early June.
Weed pollen is present from July to October, peaking in late August. Some days have higher pollen counts than others, depending on temperature, humidity, and wind.
Pollen counts are usually highest in the morning and early evening. Staying indoors during these times, using air purifiers, and keeping windows closed can help alleviate symptoms.
When pollen counts are high, we suggest doing these things to help with allergies, especially on windy days when pollen is flying around.
