Photo: Jimmy Tan via Flickr<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3><b>First off, how do we know if the PSI is in the unhealthy range?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The easiest way to keep track of a 24-hour PSI reading is to check the <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nea.gov.sg\/home\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">National Environment Agency\u2019s website <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">for updates. When the numbers hit 100 and above, that\u2019s when it\u2019s cause for concern. \u201cThis 24-hour PSI reading is based on PM 2.5 concentration levels and other pollutants like sulphur dioxide, ozone, nitrogen dioxide and carbon monoxide &#8211; and PM 2.5 refers to ultrafine particulate matter more than 25 times finer than the diameter of your hair. That\u2019s why they are dangerous, as our respiratory systems are not able to remove them as well as larger particles.\u201d says Dr. Lim. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Why should you care?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Your health could be affected in a number of ways: short term effects include increased tearing, nose sensitivity, scratchy throats, difficulty breathing, wheezing and coughing. And that\u2019s not all &#8211; according to Dr. Lim, continuous exposure may lead to an increase in heart and vessel disease, lung disease and asthma. In extreme cases, a high PM10 has been linked to more strokes, heart attacks and heart failure, too.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>What can we do to avoid these nasty side effects?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cChildren, the elderly, pregnant women and those with heart and lung diseases are more at risk. They should minimise prolonged or strenuous outdoor physical exertion,\u201d advises Dr. Lim. Even those who are healthy should reduce their time outside. Give your immune system a boost with vitamin C, multivitamins, omega 3 fatty acids, or invest in an air purifier with HEPA filters (check out <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/thehoneycombers.com\/singapore\/the-haze-is-back-bring-out-the-air-purifier-singapore\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">our guide to choosing the right one for your home or office<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">). When you\u2019re out and about for more than 10 minutes, don\u2019t forget to put on an N95 or EN-149 mask, which helps reduce the amount of PM2.5 particles inhaled. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>How do we relieve symptoms of irritation caused by the haze?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If you\u2019re feeling a little under the weather, using nasal anti-allergy, decongestant or steroid spray medication may help relieve nasal passages. Dr. Lim also recommends hydrating by drinking plenty of water to flush out toxins, while avoiding dehydrating liquids containing caffeine or alcohol. Of course, it goes without saying that you should definitely avoid smoking, and don\u2019t hesitate to head straight to the doctor if these symptoms persist. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Adj Assoc Prof, Lynne Lim, is Senior ENT Consultant at Mount Elizabeth Medical Centre (Orchard).
