Interesting facts and the latest news about pollen allergies!

This interview is all about dealing with pollen allergies. The conversation sheds light on current developments in pollen measurement, treatment options and digital support for sufferers.
Dr Berger explains how Europe-wide pollen measurements and a variety of digital tools - such as the "Pollen+ App", daily exposure warnings or an interactive risk profile - help to identify symptoms at an early stage and take targeted countermeasures.

Therapeutically, the focus is on three pillars: symptom-relieving medication, allergen avoidance and, above all, specific immunotherapy (hyposensitisation), which addresses the cause in the long term. Simple measures such as nasal rinsing, protective masks or air filters also provide support.

The influence of climate change remains a growing issue: flowering periods are lengthening and new plant species are appearing. This makes it all the more important to provide pollen allergy sufferers with up-to-date data, targeted information and sustainable support.
