The relationship between rhinitis and pharyngitis

Rhinitis is a very common disease in people's daily life. There are many reasons for this disease. It may be caused by congenital reasons such as genetic reasons, it may be caused by bad living habits, or it may be caused by viral infection. Rhinitis is also closely related to other diseases of the people, such as pharyngitis. Here we will introduce the relationship between rhinitis and pharyngitis.

Rhinitis and pharyngitis seem to be two different diseases, but in fact the relationship between the two diseases is very close, and rhinitis can also be regarded as the main cause of pharyngitis. After suffering from rhinitis, you must treat it as soon as possible. If you don't treat it in time, the inflammation will go down to the throat and cause pharyngitis. Rhinitis and pharyngitis are two diseases that we often hear about in our lives. The incidence of these two diseases around us is also very high, but many people do not understand the relationship between rhinitis and pharyngitis. In fact, the connection between these two diseases is very close. Let us introduce them to you in detail below.

Pharyngitis can easily cause pharyngitis. After suffering from rhinitis, the patient will experience nasal congestion and hyperplasia. The normal nasal passage is blocked, and these inflammatory secretions will flow downward to the throat. These secretions contain inflammatory substances and viruses, so it is easy to cause infection in the throat and cause pharyngitis. At this time, the patient will experience symptoms such as pain, burning, and foreign body sensation in the throat, so after suffering from rhinitis, it is necessary to seek treatment as soon as possible to avoid involvement of the throat.

In addition, if rhinitis is not cured in time, it will turn into chronic rhinitis, causing long-term chronic inflammation in the nasal cavity and repeated attacks. In this case, our nasal mucosal tissue will proliferate, irritating the throat and causing discomfort. Therefore, patients with chronic rhinitis generally suffer from pharyngitis. The connection between these two diseases is very close. Only by curing rhinitis early can pharyngitis be treated and relieved. If rhinitis and pharyngitis exist and occur at the same time, the bacteria may ascend to the middle ear and induce otitis media.
