Infectious Rhinitis
- It is mainly caused by viral infections (e.g., cold viruses), and sometimes bacterial infections can also induce rhinitis.
Allergic Rhinitis
pollen
- When pollen enters through the nose or throat, allergic rhinitis occurs.
House dust mites
- House dust mites are also a major cause of allergic rhinitis. They primarily feed on human skin flakes and are concentrated mainly in bedrooms and living rooms where people sit or lie down, such as sofas, beds, and carpets.
Pet hair, dandruff
- When pet hair and dander enter the respiratory system, allergic rhinitis occurs as a result of the immune response.
Non-allergic rhinitis
Climate change
- Sudden temperature changes, especially exposure to cold air, can cause symptoms of rhinitis.
Environmental factors
- Rhinitis occurs when exposed to strong odors such as perfume, paint, smoke, or irritating substances in the air, including pollutants.
Stress
- When faced with a stressful situation, the parasympathetic nerves in the nose become activated, leading to symptoms of rhinitis.
<Rhinitis Symptoms>
The symptoms of rhinitis can vary depending on the cause and severity.
Generally, symptoms include a runny nose, nasal congestion, and sneezing, and swelling inside the nose can cause pressure in the nose and surrounding areas, leading to headaches.
In cases of allergic rhinitis, symptoms such as eye redness, itching, and tearing may also occur.
Since symptoms of rhinitis can vary depending on seasonal factors, environmental factors, and an individual's health condition, it is important to consult a medical professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
