Doctor's Simple Bed Trick Could Ease Asthma and Allergies

Millions suffer from allergies and asthma, conditions often worsened by dust mites. A recent TikTok video by anesthesiologist Dr. Myro Figura offers a simple yet effective solution: leave your bed unmade for an hour or two after waking up. Dr. Figura explains that this allows moisture to evaporate, reducing the ideal environment for dust mites. "Dust mites thrive in moisture," says Dr. Figura in the video. "Leaving your bed unmade helps dry it out, drastically reducing the mite population." He also recommends washing bedsheets and pillowcases weekly for optimal hygiene. This simple tip could significantly improve the lives of those affected by dust mite allergies and asthma, highlighting the importance of everyday practices in maintaining good health.
