Rhinitis: what it is and how to treat it

rinite

The term rhinitis indicates a general irritation and inflammation of the nasal mucosa.
There are three main types of rhinitis: infectious rhinitis, allergic rhinitis, and non-allergic rhinitis (or vasomotor rhinitis).
Infectious rhinitis arises as a result of a viral or bacterial disease; the allergic form, on the other hand, appears as a result of an allergy to substances such as dust, pollen, animal hair or the so-called Balsam of Peru; finally, non-allergic rhinitis is the result of abnormal dilation of the blood vessels of the nasal mucosa.
