Is it ok to use handkerchiefs?

Question

I have allergies and blow my nose alot. Are handkerchiefs ok to use? I heard that it can spread germs. I'm tired of running out of tissues

Answer 1

Yes they are fine, I suggest washing them at least every three days, even a hand wash.

Answer 2

Yeah sure they are. I always put a clean hanky in my trouser pocket before leaving the house as l tend to blow my nose a few times throughout the day. Much better for the environment  and cheaper than tissues. If you have to blow your nose alot, why not carry two with you?

I would recommend washing them daily if you do have to blow your nose everyday so make sure you own plenty.
