Allergic Rhinitis
Do you have frequent bouts of sneezing and an itchy, runny nose that interferes with your daily work? If you answered yes, you may have allergic rhinitis.
Allergic rhinitis, also known as nasal allergy, is characterized by symptoms such as sneezing, watery eyes, nasal itching, congestion, and a runny nose. These symptoms appear when you are exposed to a potential allergen (a substance that causes an allergic reaction), such as dust, pet dander, or certain seasonal pollen.
Allergic rhinitis can have a significant impact on your quality of life and must therefore be treated. Homeopathy is a powerful medical treatment that provides significant relief to patients suffering from allergic rhinitis.
Symptoms
It all begins with a runny nose and sneezing.
A person suffering from allergic rhinitis may experience one or more of the following symptoms:
Sneezing and coughing all the time
Runny nose
Congestion in the nose
Itching in the nose, ears, throat, or eyes
Watery eyes
Reduced ability to smell
Post-nasal discharge (It's a condition in which there is a discharge from the nose)
Causes
Several causes (substances that cause allergic reactions in the body) are to blame for troublesome episodes of allergic rhinitis. Among the most common causes are:
Pollen Dust Molds in the Outdoors
Dust mites in the home
Wood shavings
Exposure to specific animals (including pets)
Cockroaches
Rodents
Smoke, pollution, and strong odours are all irritants.
Diagnosis of Allergic Rhinitis
In addition, some skin tests, such as those listed below, can aid in the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis.
Skin prick test: This test involves pricking a small amount of purified allergen extract into the skin of your arm and then looking for signs of an allergic reaction. A raised bump at the tested site would be a positive test for this test, confirming your allergy to the injected substance.
Intradermal tests: In this test, an allergen extract is injected between layers of skin and an allergic reaction on the tested site is observed.
Homeopathic treatment for allergic rhinitis
There are five advantages to using homoeopathy treatment for allergic rhinitis:
Homeopathy believes that stress can aggravate allergic rhinitis and treats both conditions concurrently to get to the root of the problem.
In conventional medicine, common treatments for allergic rhinitis cause drowsiness and interfere with daily life. Homeopathy, on the other hand, is risk-free and without side effects.
Homeopathy is a type of holistic treatment. Unlike conventional medicine, which prescribes different medicines for each complaint, you do not need different homoeopathic medicines for allergic rhinitis to treat various manifestations such as watering of the nose or itching of the eyes.
Because no two allergic people have the same symptoms, no two people receive the same medication. Every patient is treated individually based on the specifics of his or her condition.
Homeopathic treatment creates specific immunity to known allergens as well as general immunity to unknown allergens.
