Allergy season is in full swing and millions of people across the globe are suffering because of it. If you’re doing any traveling this summer and suffer from allergies, then you’ll want to check out this article from MSNBC on the worst U.S. cities for allergies. As an allergy sufferer myself, I can tell you that I won’t be visiting Hartford, Conn. anytime soon.

As stated in the article, this doesn’t mean you have to stay cooped up inside all the time. You just have to be aware of what the weather and pollen counts are like before you venture outside for the day. Personally, I use Claritin, which is blessedly available over the counter now. As long as I’m doped up on that, I’m good to go. It’s also work-safe, meaning that you aren’t going to pass out at your laptop for the sake of a stuffy nose.

Remember if you are traveling for work or pleasure and you suffer from allergies, make sure to pack some medication with you before you go. You never know what kind of medications will be available where you are going.
