ALLERGIC RHINTIS

Did you ever notice in your child these symptoms when he plays in an open site?

  • Marks on the skin.
  • Intense itching of eyes and nose.
  • Ear pain.

If your child is dealing with these symptoms in his daily life, this can be an alarm bell of an unnoticed pediatric problem called Allergic Rhinitis.

What is Children's Allergic Rhinitis?

Allergic rhinitis is a reaction that occurs in the nose when an allergen brought in by the air triggers the release of histamine in the immune system. Histamine causes swelling and fluid build-up in the lining of the nasal passages, sinuses, and eyelids.

This usually happens when you breathe in an environment to which you are allergic, such as dust, filaments, insect venom, or pollen.

Symptoms

  • Nasal congestion, sneezing, and watery discharge.
  • Rhinorrhea (constant discharge of watery fluid from the nose).
  • Itching of the palate, nose, or eyes.
  • Snoring
  • Frequent sore throat.
  • Frequent clearing of throat, cough.
  • Headache
  • Dark round marks and puffiness under the eyes.
  • Blocked ears and decreased ability to smell.

When to see a doctor?

If the following conditions appear, contact your doctor:

  • Cough during the night.
  • The chest is full of mucus with cough or there is mucus in the vomit.
  • The conditions persist for more than a week.
  • Acute allergy symptoms.
  • Fever.

Diagnosis

The condition is determined by physical examination of the ears, eyes, nose, throat, and laboratory tests, include:

  • Total and differential blood count.
  • Serum IgE level.
  • Nasal smear.
  • Prick test of the skin.
  • Antigen-antibody reaction test.

Treatment

Talk with a pediatrician, who may be able to diagnose allergies by examining your child and reviewing their medical history. Treatment will depend on your child’s symptoms, age, and general health. It will also depend on how severe the condition is.

  • Elimination of allergy-causing substances.
  • Proper medicines.
  • Irrigate the nose with saline.
  • Use of nasal sprays and anticonvulsants.
  • Steamy breaths To loosen the mucus in the nose,
  • Allergy shots
