Modern medical research has concluded that 50% to 70% of the diseases suffered by adults are related to mental trauma. Medical research proves that when a person is in a state of depression, pessimism and apathy, both compound amines and dopamine in the body are low, and compound amines regulate a person’s ability to perceive pain, which is why 45% of patients with a tendency to be depressed will experience painful discomfort. And chronic mental stress, overwork and mood swings can trigger rhinitis outbreaks. The increasingly fast pace of life in today’s society, intricate interpersonal relationships, high levels of work pressure and family stress, make people under repeated stimulation of emotions such as tension, fear or resentment and frustration, the probability of causing disease increases sharply.
The intricate mechanism of vasomotor rhinitis and how emotions lead to rhinitis is generally believed to be related to autonomic nervous disorders. The repeated stimulation of sympathetic nerves by adverse emotions weakens the influence of sympathetic nerves and leads to increased excitability of the parasympathetic nerves against them, causing vasodilatation of nasal mucosa, glandular secretion and clinical symptoms of vasomotor rhinitis, mainly manifested as nasal congestion, sneezing and nasal overflow. In addition, endocrine disorders caused by emotional changes can also cause nasal symptoms.
Rhinitis can also trigger complications such as asthma, headache and dizziness. Patients with severe symptoms or those who suffer from chronic problems may experience decreased sleep quality and emotional irritability with depression, so either allergic rhinitis, or acute or chronic rhinitis may in turn trigger vasomotor rhinitis, forming a vicious circle.
As a result of nasal congestion, oxygen inhalation is obstructed, and insufficient blood oxygen supply will cause various degrees of oxygen deprivation in various tissues and organs throughout the body, which can cause headaches due to rhinitis, lack of brain clarity, drowsiness, memory loss, mental decline, and low work efficiency; adolescents are prone to rhinitis attacks. The majority of them are allergic rhinitis.
Therefore, both patients and healthy people should pay attention to their nasal hygiene, pay attention to cleaning foreign bodies in the nasal cavity, and wash the nasal cavity regularly. After the appearance of nasal symptoms, pay attention to distinguish whether the nasal symptoms are caused by a cold or the clinical manifestations of rhinitis, especially allergic rhinitis can easily be diagnosed as a cold. Secondly, patients with vasomotor rhinitis should pay attention to improving their working conditions and environment, mastering the rhythm of life, not having to be overly fatigued and stressed, combining work and rest, paying attention to observing and stabilizing their emotions, not having to get too emotional or be in a bad emotional state for a long time. For allergic rhinitis patients, in addition to the above matters, should also pay attention to stay away from allergens, and actively seek help and physicians to achieve the effect of the right medicine, never think that sneezing, runny nose, nasal itching, nasal congestion and other symptoms disappeared and considered cured.
