Relief from Oak Pollen: Showers vs. Sinus Rinse We talk a lot about how to avoid oak pollen allergens, but it is nearly impossible to never be exposed. Most allergists will advise showering and washing away oak and other pollens or animal dander, for example, from the skin and hair after exposure. This is helpful. My favorite tip is to actually wash away allergens that are sitting on the inside surface of the nose. While saline (salt water) nasal spray will loosen and dilute these allergens, a larger amount of the salt water is necessary to wash the allergens away. This can be accomplished with a nasal rinse kit. These can be found on the shelves of most grocery stores and pharmacies. They don’t require a prescription, but you should be aware that the recommendation is to use a sterile water source (such as distilled water or previously boiled tap water) to avoid the risk of odd infections. Dr. Amanda Trott-Gregorio is a Board Certified Allergist with Stone Oak Allergy. Call 210-494-0690 for an appointment today.
