About Allergic Rhinitis

Allergic rhinitis, commonly known as hay fever, is an allergic reaction that occurs when the immune system overreacts to airborne allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold spores, or pet dander. Symptoms include sneezing, runny or stuffy nose, itchy or watery eyes, and an itchy throat. It can be seasonal (triggered by pollen during specific times of the year) or perennial (occurring year-round due to indoor allergens). While allergic rhinitis cannot be cured, it can be effectively managed with medications, lifestyle changes, and allergen immunotherapy to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
