Patient's question:
NoDoctor's answer:
Childhood rhinitis is caused by nasal discharge flowing into the pharynx and prolonged mouth breathing, often accompanied by symptoms of chronic pharyngitis, such as excessive phlegm, a foreign body sensation, or throat pain. The nasal discharge is usually purulent or mucopurulent, yellow or yellow-green, with varying amounts, mostly flowing towards the pharynx. Unilateral discharge with an odor may lead to temporary loss of smell due to nasal congestion. If medication is needed, it should be taken under the guidance of a doctor to avoid the development of medicinal rhinitis. It is best to seek treatment at an otolaryngology hospital.
