Some children suffer from allergies more than others and some form this allergy later in life, no one can really say what the main cause of allergy is, the adults also suffer from this problem too. It is not necessary that the allergy is related to food only it can be other such as dust, insect bite, medication, grass, pollen etc. too. We need to take extra care of the children who suffer from allergies as this can be fatal if not treated properly. House Cleaning West Seattle has some tips that can be helpful in taking care of the children who suffer from allergies.

1.  Medication allergy

When house cleaning, this kind of allergy is also commonly faced by many children it can be developed at a very early age or later on. The symptoms of medication allergy can be rash or itchy skin or swelling.  For this you can consult your doctor and take medication accordingly. Don’t try anything by yourself as it may be harmful for your child and may cause permanent damage in them.

2.   Dust allergy

When house cleaning the most basic kind of allergy faced by children is dust or dust mite allergy. These are tiny insects that are found in warm places such as mattress, pillows, soft toys and carpets, these insects eat tiny flakes of dust and skin. This is the most common kind as these things cannot be prevented from the homes at any cost. During house cleaning, due this kind of allergy the children may face hay fever or asthma. This kind of allergy remains throughout the year.

Treatment

When house cleaning, the treatment for dust allergy is that you cover the mattress with covers, wash the pillows and sheets with hot water, you should wash the blankets and the stuff toys that you child likes the most with hot water too. Do the dusting on a daily basis, try doing vacuum on a daily basis too so that no dust particles are left in the air.

 3.   Pet allergy

When house cleaning, some children do face allergies from pet fur, this may cause their hands to dry or they can have small boils on the body or have rash from touching the pets. It may be the cause of asthma in your child or can cause hay fever in them. So if you have pets around the house do check for the symptoms.  

Treatment

If your child is fine around your own pet, but when he/she is around someone else’s pet has an allergic reaction, then after consulting your doctor you can give them a dosage of antihistamine half an hour before you leave the house to meet someone who has pets at home or you can ask them not to touch their pets (which is very difficult).
