Can allergic rhinitis cause asthma?

Allergic rhinitis is a common disease in daily life. It poses a huge threat to human health and has therefore always attracted much attention. So can allergic rhinitis trigger asthma? Most people don't quite understand this issue. In fact, asthma and allergic rhinitis are common combined diseases, and about 50% of patients with allergic rhinitis also have asthma.

1. Complications of rhinitis cannot be ignored

According to experts, asthma and allergic rhinitis are common combined diseases. About 50% of patients with allergic rhinitis also have asthma. Allergic rhinitis is an allergic disease. Symptoms often occur before asthma. Treatment is often delayed due to misdiagnosis as a cold, leading to asthma attacks. In addition, some other rhinitis, such as sinusitis, nasal polyps, hypertrophic rhinitis, etc., can easily cause serious complications such as snoring, dizziness, headache, and even cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

2. There is a trick to treat allergic rhinitis

With the development of science and technology, the low-temperature plasma anterior ethmoid nerve blocking technology recently used in clinical practice has obvious effects on allergic rhinitis, especially severe allergic rhinitis.

1. Look at the nose: If you suffer from allergic rhinitis, the patient's nasal mucosa is generally reddish, pale or dark gray, and has edema. Clear and thin nasal discharge can be seen in the nasal cavity. During the intervals between attacks, the nasal mucosa is extremely pale and edematous, and even nasal polyps may form.

2. Look at the cause: Allergic rhinitis is a reaction caused by the nose being exposed to allergens, which stimulates the immune system. It is mainly divided into inhaled allergens and food allergens. In addition to pollen, the specific allergens that cause allergic rhinitis also include cold air, dust, animal hair and skin, woolen clothing, etc. We are more likely to be exposed to these allergens, so we need to pay more attention to maintaining good hygiene habits in our lives.

3. Notes

1. Kill cockroaches and other pests thoroughly indoors.

2. Control the occurrence of mold and mildew in the living environment.

3. Pay attention to details in life, such as paying attention to hygienic diet.

4. If the patient is allergic to pollen, he should wear a mask when going out, or go to the seaside where there are fewer allergens.

The symptoms of allergic rhinitis vary depending on the irritating factors, the duration and amount of contact with allergens, and the patient's body response. The symptoms of perennial allergic rhinitis may occur at any time, sometimes mild and sometimes severe, and often coexist with other allergic diseases in the body.
