, Nasal experts teach you to understand chronic rhinitis Type: Rhinitis specialty Date: 2011-08-05 Treating chronic rhinitis carelessly and neglectfully is unacceptable. Chronic rhinitis is a relatively serious disease and should not be treated as a minor ailment. Severe chronic rhinitis patients may require surgery for treatment. When treating chronic rhinitis, there are some precautions that need our attention.
The precautions of chronic rhinitis are very important to us. Understanding these precautions can lead to effective treatment and prevention.
1. Preventing nasal infection while swimming: During summer, rhinitis patients should be cautious about water entering the nasal cavity and causing infections. Therefore, before submerging your head in water, take a deep breath, and exhale through your nose while underwater. After getting out of the water, if there is water in your nose, avoid forcefully blowing it out. Instead, perform jumping movements on the ground while making short exhales through the nose to expel the water. This is a particularly important precaution for chronic rhinitis.
2. Do not forcibly blow your nose when experiencing nasal congestion, as this may cause the rupture of nasal capillaries leading to nosebleeds, or allow bacteria-laden mucus to flow back into the nasopharynx and cause otitis media. This is also an important precaution for chronic rhinitis that we should know.
3. Avoid drastic temperature changes: Do not stay too long in excessively cold air-conditioned rooms. When entering and exiting air-conditioned rooms, prevent drastic temperature changes from causing a cold. Minimize the intake of stimulating foods like fried, spicy, or pickled items. All these are aspects within the precautions of chronic rhinitis that require our attention.
Our living environment must be kept clean. Windows should be opened regularly to enhance the exchange of indoor and outdoor air, and cleaning should be done frequently. This way, chronic rhinitis can be avoided. The above precautions for chronic rhinitis should be remembered well, especially for pediatric rhinitis.
