Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my child has pediatric allergic rhinitis and just turned 6 years old. They also have allergic asthma and rhinitis. Recently, they have been experiencing nasal congestion and always have a runny nose in the morning, which is indeed very uncomfortable. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
The most fundamental health measure for children with allergic rhinitis is to identify the substances that trigger allergies in the child, known as allergens, and to avoid them as much as possible. When symptoms primarily occur outdoors: it may be necessary to limit outdoor activities, especially contact with flowers, plants, or decaying leaves, willow catkins. When going out, wearing a mask is recommended, or you can choose to go to a seaside area with fewer allergens.
