Allergic rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal lining that appears when the immune system overreacts to harmless substances in the environment, such as pollen, dust, or pet dander.

Common symptoms:

• Bursts of sneezing and itching in the nose, eyes, or throat
• Clear nasal drainage and congestion
• Watery or irritated eyes

Common causes: It is usually triggered by seasonal or year-round allergens, and it is often associated with a family history of allergies.

Which specialist treats it? The allergist and the otolaryngologist are common references for investigating the causes; in children the pediatrician guides the initial approach. If symptoms are recurrent or affect your rest, it is worth discussing it with a health professional for an evaluation tailored to you.
