Allergic Rhinitis
Rhinitis is what is described as a condition that can cause
swelling, reddening, and irritation of the nose and eyes. This
condition can be caused by allergens in the air particularly
dust particles, dander from animals, or even pollen due to
certain plants if people are allergic to them. You can also have
Rhinitis and not be allergic to anything at all it can be caused
from blockages in the nasal passageway due to injury or from
birth.
You will know when you have Allergic Rhinitis when your eyes
begin to water and itch, your nose begins to run and itch, you
might start coughing or sneezing, and it will all be accompanied
by nasal congestion, or, a stuffy nose.
If any of these symptoms last more than two weeks, you need call
a doctor.
There are a few ways you can treat this, there are nasal sprays,
anti-histamines, decongestants and allergy shots. You can also
try taking a wet rag, placing it over your face and breathe in
and out through the damp cloth or a humidifier.
To treat Allergic Rhinitis altogether though, it would probably be
best to avoid situations that promote allergies. Most of the
problem is pollen, dust and animal dander. Sometimes cigarette
smoke can even be a factor if you are not used to being around
it. The best way to prevent Rhinitis from occurring is if it is
spring or summer; try to stay inside
