Does allergic rhinitis affect sleep?

Allergic rhinitis can affect sleep, especially in patients with particularly severe pale and edematous turbinates, where nasal ventilation is severely obstructed. In such cases, the patient’s breath-holding sensation is particularly obvious when sleeping, and he often breathes with his mouth open, and the patient’s mouth becomes dry over time, which can affect sleep. Sometimes a lot of nasal mucus is produced, and even backflow of nasal mucus may occur. Patients may be easily awakened by the backflow of nasal mucus just before falling asleep, and even coughing may occur. Be sure to actively deal with allergic rhinitis to avoid affecting the quality of the patient’s sleep. Clinically commonly used drugs are paracetamol or Epastine tablets, and the nose can be sprayed with mometasone furoate nasal spray to improve the symptoms, and the patient’s allergic rhinitis will definitely improve after active treatment.
