❄️ Winter Storm Prep Tips for Chester County This Weekend

A winter storm is expected in our area this weekend. Here are a few simple steps to help you and your family stay safe and comfortable:

🛒 General Preparedness Tips:
• Fill up your gas tank before the storm arrives
• Stock up on drinking water and easy-to-prepare foods
• Charge phones, tablets, and backup power banks
• Have flashlights, batteries, candles, and matches ready
• Set your thermostat to a steady temperature
• Bring pets indoors and prepare extra pet food
• Park cars away from trees and charge electric vehicles early

🌬️For Our Patients:
• Keep rescue inhalers and daily meds easily accessible
• Make sure you have enough medication refills for several days
• Avoid using scented candles or fireplaces that may worsen breathing
• Run a humidifier if indoor air becomes too dry
• Keep windows closed to reduce cold air triggers
• If you use a nebulizer, ensure it’s fully charged or has backup power

💙 At Keystone Allergy & Asthma Center, your health and safety come first.
Stay warm, stay safe, and reach out if your asthma or allergy symptoms flare during the storm.

It’s not too late to get protected!

Both the flu vaccine and RSV vaccine (for eligible adults) are still strongly recommended for this season — especially for young children, older adults, and patients with asthma or chronic lung conditions.

Staying up to date can help prevent severe illness and complications.

If you have questions about whether the vaccines are right for you or your child, we’re here to help.

🔬 2025 Nobel Prize in Medicine Goes to the Immune System’s “Brake Pedal”
This year’s award in Physiology or Medicine recognizes the seminal work on regulatory T cells (T-regs) — the immune system’s crucial restraint system.

The laureates — Mary E. Brunkow, Fred Ramsdell, and Shimon Sakaguchi — uncovered how immune cells keep self-reactive responses from spiraling into autoimmunity, and identified the key transcription factor FOXP3 that defines and regulates T-regs.

🧠 Why This Matters to Us (as Providers / Immunologists / Allergists)

T-regs are central to peripheral immune tolerance — the mechanism preventing our immune system from attacking healthy tissue.

Dysregulation of T-regs (or FOXP3 mutations) causes severe autoimmune conditions.

Their discovery opens new therapeutic windows: modulating T-reg activity for autoimmune disease, transplantation, cancer immunotherapy, and more

Food allergies are common—and so is bullying related to them. Research shows that children with food allergies are more likely to experience bullying, teasing, or social exclusion because of their condition. This can affect mental health, school performance, and overall well-being.

Why it matters: Undiagnosed metal allergies can lead to:

What is the Air Quality Index (AQI)?

The AQI is a daily measurement that tells you how clean or polluted your outdoor air is. The AQI reports on five major air pollutants: ozone, particulate matter, sulfur dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen dioxide. Think of it as a weather forecast for the air you breathe!
📊 Today's AQI in Exton: 83 (Moderate) - Dominant pollutant is PM2.5 (tiny particles that irritate the eyes, nose, and respiratory system)
Why This Matters for Your Allergies:
When air quality is poor, it doesn't just make breathing harder - it actually makes allergens like pollen stick around longer in the air and can make your allergy symptoms more severe. Poor air quality can also inflame your respiratory system, making you more sensitive to allergens you encounter.

Tips for High AQI Days:
🏠 Stay indoors during peak pollution hours (usually midday)
🪟 Keep windows and doors closed
❄️ Use air conditioning instead of opening windows
💨 Run air purifiers with HEPA filters in bedrooms and main living areas
🚗 Avoid outdoor exercise - move workouts indoors
🌅 If you must go outside, early morning is usually best
📱 Check daily AQI at AirNow.gov or weather apps

At Keystone Allergy and Asthma Center in Exton, we help you breathe easier every day of the year! Whether it's seasonal allergies, asthma triggered by poor air quality, or chronic respiratory issues, our experienced team is here to provide personalized treatment plans.

🥜 Cashew & Pistachio Allergy: What You Should Know! 🌰
Cashew and pistachio allergies often go hand-in-hand due to their close botanical relationship. These nuts contain similar storage proteins that can trigger severe allergic reactions, even with small exposures.

🚨 Reactions can range from mild hives to life-threatening anaphylaxis — which is why carrying an epinephrine auto-injector (EpiPen) is crucial for anyone diagnosed with a tree nut allergy.

💉 For patients with frequent allergic reactions or those who are highly sensitized, Xolair (omalizumab) may be considered as a treatment option to reduce allergic response.

If you or your child has a tree nut allergy, talk to us about:

Cross-reactivity with other nuts

Reading labels and avoiding hidden sources

Emergency action plans and medication options

📞 Call us today to schedule an allergy evaluation or learn more about treatment options like Xolair!
