allergic rhinitis including hay fever.

You probably have a friend who suffers from hay fever. When in the middle of August the air is saturated with ragweed pollen, it begins to sneeze, its nose is forever laid, and flows from it. This means that his nose is prone to allergies, or hypersensitivity to pollen, which other people do not bother at all. Some suffer from hay fever in the spring, because they are sensitive to the pollen of individual trees, others - in the beginning of summer from certain herbs. If your child has a runny nose and itching in the nose at the same time of the year and lasts for several weeks, you should consult a doctor. Treatment usually consists of frequent injections, which are carried out for a long time. Temporary relief can be brought by the medicines prescribed by the doctor.

But there are other forms of an allergic rhinitis, not seasonal and not caused by pollen. They are less dramatic, but they can bring more trouble. Some nose is sensitive to feathers in pillows, or to dog hair, or to dust in the house, or to a lot of other substances. Such year-round allergies can cause a child to suffer from a runny nose and breathe through the mouth. Chronic blockage of the nose makes the child more susceptible to sinus infections. If your child suffers greatly from this, a doctor or an allergy specialist can establish the cause. In each case the treatment is different and depends on the cause. If it's a goose quill, you'll change your pillow. If it's dog hair,

IS POSSIBLE, you will have to part with the dog and get another pet. If the cause is in something that is difficult to avoid, such as house dust, the doctor will prescribe a special treatment. At the same time, he recommends "clean room", remove items on which dust accumulates, especially if symptoms occur at night or in the morning. It is necessary to remove the carpets and curtains forever and carry out daily wet cleaning in the room. Remove from the room all woolen, and at the same time all soft toys. We must either buy a special dustproof coating on the mattress, or get a canvas bed completely without a mattress and pillows.

Symptoms of an allergy usually can not be eliminated completely. We have to be satisfied with partial improvement.
