Neurological rhinorrhea refers to vasomotor rhinitis. According to the cause of the disease and the characteristics of the disease, it is necessary to choose to remove the cause of the disease, medication, surgical treatment, and laser and radiofrequency treatment.
1. Remove the cause: this disease can be caused by the increased excitability of parasympathetic nerves, causing vasodilatation. Often repeated excessive anxiety, irritability or mental tension, as well as taking anti-hypertensive drugs can reduce sympathetic excitability and increase parasympathetic excitability. Removing the above causes can relieve the symptoms.
2. Pharmacological treatment: when nasal congestion, appropriate application of nasal decongestants such as hydroxymetazoline, antihistamines such as loratadine, cholinergic receptor blockers such as ipratropium bromide and nasal glucocorticoids such as budesonide can be used for anti-inflammatory and decongestive purposes.
3. Surgery: Some patients can reduce the parasympathetic nerve tension in the nasal cavity through surgery such as nasal septum correction and pre-sialylation neurotomy, so as to relieve the symptoms of nasal congestion.
4. Laser and radiofrequency: Electrocautery or coagulation of the septal branch of the pre-sial nerve, the nasal mound and the medial surface of the inferior turbinate may have a similar effect to that of surgical treatment.
When suffering from this disease and causing neurogenic nasal congestion symptoms, you can actively consult a doctor for systematic examination, clear diagnosis and etiology, and then follow the doctor’s instructions to standardize the treatment.
