A member asked:

What types of jobs are safe to do when you're both allergenic and asthmatic?

3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Ones that...: ...Avoid your particular sensitivities. People with house dust allergy do great in outdoor jobs, but people with pollen allergies do not.

Depends...: It would depend on your allergic triggers. You would need to find a job where you are not exposed to your particular triggers. Ask your doctor for specific suggestions.
