#Allergic rhinitis#
Allergic rhinitis is a common chronic respiratory disease characterized by symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and itchy nose. It is caused by allergens such as pollen, dust mites, animal dander, etc., and people who are allergic to these substances are more likely to develop allergic rhinitis. This disease often brings a lot of inconvenience and trouble to the patient's life, but by understanding and mastering the relevant knowledge, it can effectively relieve symptoms and improve the quality of life.
First, understanding the pathological mechanism of allergic rhinitis is very important for patients. When the human body comes into contact with allergens, the immune system releases too many substances such as histamine, resulting in congestion and inflammatory reactions in the nasal mucosa. Therefore, patients should try to avoid contact with allergens, such as pollen allergy patients can stay indoors, especially in windswept weather, avoid opening windows, reduce the concentration of flowers and plants. In addition, keeping the air fresh, ventilating more, and cleaning the indoor environment regularly is also very helpful.
Second, a balanced diet is also one of the important factors to relieve allergic rhinitis. Attention should be paid to increasing the intake of vitamin C and vitamin E in the diet, which can enhance the body's anti-allergic ability. For example, eat more fresh fruits, vegetables, and vitamin E-rich nuts and legumes, such as peanuts and almonds. In addition, the crude fiber content in the diet should also be appropriately increased, such as eating more cereals and whole grains, which helps promote intestinal peristalsis and reduce the absorption of allergens.
Third, rhinitis patients can also use some natural remedies for relief. For example, washing the nasal passages with warm salt water every morning and evening can play a role in cleaning the nasal passages and reducing allergens. In addition, applying a warm compress to the nose is also a simple and effective way to reduce the symptoms of nasal congestion and congestion. In addition, many Chinese herbal medicines have also been found to have a certain effect on alleviating allergic rhinitis, such as wild chrysanthemums, peppermint, etc., and herbal teas made from them can be consumed.
In addition, for the treatment of allergic rhinitis, patients can choose the appropriate drug according to the severity of symptoms. For example, for patients with mild symptoms, some over-the-counter medications, such as antihistamines and nasal sprays, may be used to relieve symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose. In patients with more severe symptoms, oral or topical agents may be considered to control the inflammatory response.
