Patient's question:
The baby is one year and five months old. Usually, when taking a nap, sometimes they breathe through the mouth like they have a stuffy nose, or their breathing makes a sizzling sound. After a careful examination, it was said that it is allergic rhinitis. Medications and nasal sprays were prescribed. How long should they take to get better?Doctor's answer:
Allergic rhinitis is divided into seasonal and perennial types. Seasonal rhinitis is generally related to allergies, such as pollen and plants. Perennial rhinitis is usually associated with dust mites and dust. However, no matter which type of rhinitis, medication cannot heal it on its own; it can only relieve your symptoms. Standard treatment involves nasal sprays and oral medications. Nasal sprays are divided into topical corticosteroids, but local effects can have side effects.
