Patient: I got a cold in early December and took medicine for four or five days to cure it, after about 10 days there were no other cold symptoms, but in the middle of the month (15 or 16, I think) the child started sneezing again with a nasal sound and redness around the eyes, initially suspecting a cold, taking medicine for 5 or 6 days with no improvement in sneezing symptoms, 5 or 6 times a day with two each time. The doctor said it was allergic rhinitis, and the medical record seemed to say “nasal congestion, swelling” and prescribed a box of Desloratadine, and the symptoms did not improve after four days of taking the medicine as required. He said that the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis could not be confirmed, or at least the symptoms were not obvious, because allergic rhinitis would have a lot of clear nose (my daughter does not have a runny nose), and according to him, it could not be ruled out as allergic rhinitis. After two days of spraying, the sneezing became less frequent (2 or 3 times a day) but the child’s nose lining was bleeding. After calling Dr. Ren to explain the situation, he suggested stopping the medication and letting her take some more anti-allergy medication, and she sneezed 6 times that morning. On the same day (January 2), I went to the district hospital again, and the doctor still prescribed a spray, I forget the name of the medicine, it is hormonal. I’ve been searching the internet for information about this disease and I’ve learned that it’s very difficult to cure it completely and that medication can only relieve the symptoms. How do I find the source of the allergy when we haven’t bought anything new at home? Should I keep giving my child medication like this? Will it affect the development of such a young child to take so many medications? A: Sneezing, itchy nose and rubbing the nose are all common symptoms of allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is also one of the common childhood diseases. The rhinitis attack will be more powerful in autumn and winter. Nowadays, there are many medicines for rhinitis and they are also safe, so I believe that I can control my baby’s rhinitis well in the process of treatment. As babies grow and their immune systems improve, most allergy symptoms such as eczema and rhinitis in young children can be gradually relieved. If rhinitis remains stubborn after the age of 6, allergen screening and desensitization treatment can be considered. Patient: Director Ma, what type of medicine is Elserpine? Why does my nose bleed when I use it? Is it a long-term medication or a short-term medication? Also, if my child’s condition is basically under control, should I continue to use the medication? How long can I stop taking it? (I am a little worried about the hormonal medication prescribed at the local hospital.) If you are using the medication for a long time, what medication is safe? A: Aseptadine is an antihistamine (anti-allergy) nasal spray drug. There is no definite clinical evidence on the relationship between Elserpine and rhinorrhea. Ezepine can be used for a long time. If the condition is basically controlled, there is no need to continue the medication, antihistamine medication is symptomatic treatment. Long-term medication, Reynocort and Endosulfan (hormonal) are safe as confirmed by clinical studies.
