What Is Oak White Allergy?
The pollen from oak trees is not a severe allergen when compared to other trees that release pollen. But, the problem with oak trees is that their pollen stays in the air for a very long time. That is why many people often develop different allergic reactions. Some are more severe than others.
Yet, there is one particular oak tree that can be a bit more problematic than the rest. That one is White Oak. White Oak species are native to Mexico and the northern part of America. The trees to the north can develop severe allergic reactions.
White Oak has pharmacological uses. People use them in scientific research and as an ingredient in medicine. It is also useful for making dyes. Those who are allergic to White Oak have to pay attention to what they are using or consuming. It is important to avoid the ingredient as much as possible.
But, those who live in areas where there are plenty of White Oak trees don’t have a pleasant experience dealing with them. So, they try to prepare for every allergy season. It is difficult to avoid air-borne particles, especially from such big trees. But, the problem doesn’t solely rely on the trees. There is something more.
According to records, every allergy season is getting worse. Because of climate change, these seasons will keep changing. That is why the pollen can cause more severe allergic reactions.
Why Get Tested?
You need to get tested so that you can have complete control of your daily life. These tests can help you determine the impact allergens have on your body. Without getting tested, you will have trouble keeping your allergic reactions in check. You will never control the triggers correctly.
That is why it is important to get tested. There are two different tests you can do. One is a skin prick test, and the other is a blood test. Whichever you decide to use, it is up to you.
When to See a Doctor?
You don’t have to see your doctor every day. But, it is a good idea to talk to them when white oak pollen is in season. The doctor can help you monitor your condition and keep your triggers in check. If you use medications to treat allergies, but still can’t function well, talk to your doctor.
If your medications prove to be ineffective, you need to consult with a professional to know what to do next. In some rare cases, severe symptoms can occur. When that happens, it is crucial to seek professional treatment.
