Atrophic rhinitis is a rare disease of progressive atrophy of the nasal mucosa, characterized by severe nasal congestion and profuse nasal discharge. There are two forms of the disease, each of which affects a different group of people and has different symptomatology. Atrophic rhinitis is associated with a number of symptoms that can be unpleasant. A strong odor is one of the symptoms of the disease, which is usually not noticed by the patient himself, but is quickly noticed by others around him, and the patient’s breath can smell particularly bad. Other common symptoms include nasal passages filled with green crusts, nasal congestion, upper respiratory tract infections, sore throat, and sometimes headaches, all of which are symptoms of atrophic rhinitis. Both types of atrophic rhinitis can be contracted at all ages, and women are generally more likely to be affected than men. The cause of primary atrophic rhinitis has not been understood, but there are potential factors that cause it. Secondary ones may be due to complications from previous surgery or other underlying diseases. There are several treatment options for atrophic rhinitis, and the goal of treating this disease is to replenish the moisture inside the nose. The most important symptoms of the disease are nasal congestion and a large amount of secretions that block the nostrils.
