Allergic Rhinitis
May 2, 2020

Allergic rhinitis is a common condition affecting an estimated 10-20% of the general population. (Source: NCBI) It is a type of allergic reaction that happens when your immune system overreacts to inhaled substances and the body releases chemicals that cause certain symptoms. Allergic rhinitis is more common among males than females.

Let’s look at some of the things that could help ease allergic rhinitis symptoms

  • Avoid going outdoors:  Avoid this especially during high-pollen count days. It is estimated that a ragweed plant can produce up to 4 billion pollen spores, something one need to keep in mind during pollen season.
  • Protect your face: Wear oversized sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat so that the pollen is not running into your eyes directly or falling on your face and head.
  • Take a shower: When you get home after a long day, take off your clothes and take a shower before you jump into the bed.
  • Avoid air-drying clothes:b This is because bacteria, pollen and allergens might get attached to the fabric of your garments and cause irritation.
  • Avoid fans: Try to avoid having a fan in your room that sucks in air from outside and propels these allergens into the room while you are sleeping.
  • Set recirculation button on: While you are driving and you have your air-conditioning on, try to set the recirculation button on so you are not withdrawing in air from outside.
  • Inhale steam: Try saline water nasal irrigation and inhaling steam that will clear off the nasal passages of the excessive mucus and any irritants.
  • Don’t allow pets inside: Keep the pets in your lawn and outside the house as much as possible. Keep them away from kids especially.

Now, let’s look at the ways we can deal with allergic rhinitis via medication.

Conventional treatment

Allergic rhinitis treatment methods include the consumption of antihistamines which tends to work by making your body stop producing histamines. Common side-effects include dry mouth, dizziness, and drowsiness, just to name a few. Next comes the usage of decongestants, eye drops and nasal sprays which can be used to attain a short-term solution by relieving the nose from allergic rhinitis symptoms. Possible side-effects include burning sensation, high blood pressure, faster heartbeats and many more.

You may want to opt for an approach that is very safe and salubrious in that regard. Go for homeopathy.
