Rhinitis is a condition of the nose characterized by inflammation of the nasal mucosa, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, nasal congestion, runny nose, and itching. It is a common condition in the field of Allergy and Immunology, and can be caused by allergens, irritants, or infections. Allergic rhinitis is the most common type of rhinitis, and is caused by an allergic reaction to environmental allergens such as pollen, dust mites, and pet dander. Non-allergic rhinitis is caused by irritants such as smoke, strong odors, and weather changes. Treatment for rhinitis typically includes avoidance of triggers, medications, and immunotherapy.
