About

    Allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hay fever, is an inflammatory condition of the nasal passages caused by an allergic response to airborne allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or mold. Symptoms of allergic rhinitis include sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, itching, and watery eyes. Research in the field of allergic rhinitis aims to understand the underlying mechanisms of the condition, identify potential triggers, develop effective diagnostic tests, and improve treatment options such as antihistamines, decongestants, nasal corticosteroids, and allergen immunotherapy. Additionally, researchers may explore the impact of allergic rhinitis on quality of life, sleep patterns, and productivity, as well as its potential link to other conditions such as asthma. By advancing our knowledge of allergic rhinitis, researchers hope to improve the management and ultimately find a cure for this common allergic condition.
