Allergies can affect your child’s daily activities but there are steps you can take to ease his or her discomfort. Simple household routines such as dusting prior to vacuuming can ease certain reactions, but there are also factors outside your control including vog and cane smoke.
On days when there is a high vog index, limit your child’s exercise and keep plenty of drinking water available.
If your child is affected by the cane smoke, Hawaiian Commercial and Sugar Company has a cane burn information hotline where you can find out the locations and times of scheduled cane burns. 877-6963
If allergies continue to be a problem, talk to your doctor about additional steps you can take.
