Here at Glen Allergy & Asthma, we place top priority on the health and safety of our patients, staff, and their families.  We are open to serve you and your children, and we have instituted the following special practices and protocol to keep everyone safe:

  • We continue to require universal masking for all patients and staff.
  • All patients and staff are screened for COVID-19 symptoms before entering the office, as well as during the scheduling process.  
  • Patients are brought back directly to the exam room to minimize use of the waiting area.
  • Only one adult patient is allowed in the exam room. For children, we ask that only one adult accompany the patient. 
  • All exam rooms are thoroughly sanitized between each patient visit.  High-touch areas are cleaned and disinfected  frequently throughout the day.

CDC Recommendations for Staying Up to Date with the COVID-19 Vaccines

 

The updated bivalent COVID19 booster vaccine to protect against the Omicron BA.4 and BA.5 variants is now available. 

With the upcoming fall and winter seasons, the CDC recommends that all people ages 12 years and older receive one updated Pfizer or Moderna (bivalent) booster. This includes people who have received all primary series doses and people who have previously received one or more original (monovalent) boosters.


At this time, people aged 12 years to 17 years can only receive the updated Pfizer bivalent booster.


People ages 5 years to 11 years are currently recommended to get the original (monovalent) booster.

Winter season is upon us! In these parts, we often see colder temperatures bring dryness which can exacerbate certain skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis (eczema). 

 

If you have atopic dermatitis (eczema), taking care of your skin is important for maintenance and treatment of the condition. Eczema is an allergic skin reaction resulting in a red, scaly, itchy rash. The rash often appears on the face, elbows, knees, hands or scalp. Triggers include allergens, overheating or sweating, emotional stress, food and contact with wool, pets or soaps.


Skin care starts with cleansing. If you have eczema, avoid drying soaps or harsh detergents. The average pH level (acidity or alkaline) of soap is 9 to 10. The skin’s normal pH level is 4 to 5. Because of this difference, soap increases the skin’s pH to an undesirable level and can worsen eczema symptoms.


It is best to use a non-soap cleanser because they are usually free of sodium lauryl sulfate. This chemical creates soap’s foaming action and can irritate skin. Examples of non-soap cleansers include Dove® Sensitive Skin Unscented Beauty Bar, Aquaphor® Gentle Wash, AVEENO® Advanced Care Wash, Basis® Sensitive Skin Bar, CeraVe™ Hydrating Cleanser, and Cetaphil® Gentle Cleansing Bar.


Other skin care tips:
•    When bathing or showering, avoid using anything that will scrape the skin, such as a washcloth, sponge, or loofah.
•    Do not use bubble bath.
•    Pat skin dry rather than rub.
•    Moisturize immediately after bathing/showering to seal in moisture.


 If you have eczema, check with us to determine a skin care plan that is right for you.
