A member asked:

Why are allergies bad during the winter months? it seems as if the more water i drink, the more dehydrated, i feel becasue the air is so dry at home.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Heat and dust mites: Winter allergies are mostly due to dust mites and also pet dander. Lower the heat setting in the house and considering getting a humidifier. If you have allergies to dust mites or pet dander, getting an air purifier will also help. You can also try using a saline nasal spray to hydrate your nasal passages.
