Rhinitis can be divided into chronic rhinitis, acute rhinitis and other types of rhinitis, according to the etiology and characteristics of the disease can choose the general treatment, drug treatment and surgical treatment.
1. General treatment: Saline or 2.2%-2.3% hypertonic saline is often used for nasal rinsing, which can improve the symptoms, stimulate the activity of mucus cilia of nasal mucosa and increase the clearance rate, and improve the local microenvironment of nasal cavity.
2. Drug therapy: bacterial infections can be treated with antibiotics. Allergy should be oral antiallergic drugs. Nasal spray glucocorticoids are suitable for most rhinitis, such as budesonide. Nasal vasoconstrictors such as furosemide nasal drops can be used for short-term nasal mucosal edema.
3. Surgery: Different types of rhinitis are suitable for different surgical treatments, such as chronic hypertrophic rhinitis can be used for inferior turbinate partial resection, allergic rhinitis can be used for pterygoid neurectomy, atrophic rhinitis can be used for anterior nostril closure.
Rhinitis is more varied, the cause of the disease is more complex, the symptoms often overlap and are similar, and the treatment methods are also different. After the systematic examination and diagnosis by specialized doctors, we should follow the doctor’s instructions to choose the standardized treatment, and avoid the unnecessary adverse reactions caused by self-diagnosis and treatment.
