How to treat pediatric allergic rhinitis?

Patient's question:

The child is 4 years and 3 months old. Around the age of 2, an examination revealed enlarged adenoids. They also have allergic rhinitis (the doctor said that the enlarged adenoids might also be causing the rhinitis). Because the child was considered too young at the time, no surgery was performed. Later, the child's sleep remained poor, and the symptoms of nasal congestion became increasingly severe, with loud snoring throughout the night.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, there are many treatment methods for allergic rhinitis. Traditional medications and surgical treatments can only temporarily relieve the symptoms of rhinitis and cannot cure it. After the medication wears off, the symptoms of rhinitis will still occur! Moreover, long-term medication and surgical treatments can cause patients to develop drug resistance and dependence on drugs! Therefore, it is not recommended for patients to use them long-term!
