Extractions: Rhinorrhea Rhinitis Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal mucosa (the mucous membrane that lines the nose and the sinus ), often due to an allergic reaction to pollen dust or other airborne substances ( allergens ). Although the pathophysiology of many types of rhinitis is unknown, an accurate diagnosis is necessary, since not all types of rhinitis will respond to the same treatment measures. A heterogeneous disorder. Classification of chronic rhinitis: Allergic (seasonal and perennial) rhinitis Characterised by an inflammation of the nasal mucous membranes due to an allergic response. The most common of all atopic diseases in the United States, affecting up to 10% of the adult population. While no one dies directly as a result of allergic rhinitis, the economic impact is substantial. Over $600 million is spent in the USA annually in the management of this disease. This does not include the costs of the 2 million lost workdays, 3 million lost school days and 28 million days of decreased productivity from the symptoms of the disease and/or side effects of the medications used to treat them.

Extractions: Tips to Remember: Rhinitis Do you have a runny or stuffy nose that doesnt seem to go away? If so, you may have rhinitis. Rhinitis is an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nose. This inflammation is called allergic rhinitis or non-allergic rhinitis, depending on the cause of the inflammation. Allergic rhinitis Allergic rhinitis is caused by substances that trigger allergies, called allergens . Specific allergens can be found both outdoors and indoors. When allergic rhinitis is caused by common outdoor allergenssuch as airborne tree, grass and weed pollens or moldit is often referred to as seasonal allergies, or "hay fever." The time and duration of the different pollen and mold seasons can vary, depending on where you live in the country. Allergic rhinitis may also be triggered by common indoor allergens such as animal dander, indoor mold, or the droppings of cockroaches or house dust mitesmicroscopic creatures found in the home. When this is the case, these allergies are called perennial allergies, because symptoms may last year-round.

http://www.diet-and-health.net/Diseases/HayFever.html

Extractions: Go Back Nutrition for a Living Planet - Home Page Hay fever (allergic rhinitis or pollinosis) Hay fever (allergic rhinitis or pollinosis), is an allergy characterized by sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, a runny nose and a burning sensation of the palate and throat. It is usually caused by allergies to airborne substances such as dust, moulds, pollens, animal fur and feathers. It is often aggravated by a food allergy, the most common being an allergy to milk. Hay fever is most common in people with a family history of similar complaints or a personal history of eczema, hives (urticaria), and/or asthma. The best treatment is avoidance of the allergen. However, since this is not always possible, a variety of antihistamines, decongestants, and intranasal steroids may be prescribed. Various essential oils help with the symptoms, but the specifics vary from person to person. Oils that have been recommended by aromatherapists include Blue Camomile, Lemon Balm Lavender , and an increase of Vitamin C and Beta carotene should promote healing of the mucus membranes. Each spring, summer, and fall, tiny particles are released from trees, weeds, and grasses. These particles, known as pollen, hitch rides on currents of air. Although their mission is to fertilize parts of other plants, many never reach their targets. Instead, they enter human noses and throats, triggering a type of seasonal allergic rhinitis called pollen allergy, which many people know as hay fever or rose fever (depending on the season in which the symptoms occur). Of all the things that can cause an allergy, pollen is one of the most widespread. Many of the foods, drugs, or animals that cause allergies can be avoided to a great extent; even insects and household dust are escapable. Short of staying indoors when the pollen count is highand even that may not helpthere is no easy way to evade windborne pollen.

Extractions: Allergies, including allergic rhinitis, affect an estimated 40 to 50 million people in the United States. Some allergies may interfere with day-to-day activities or lessen the quality of life. The allergist-immunologist, with his or her specialized training and expertise in managing allergies, allergic rhinitis, and asthma, can develop a treatment plan for your individual condition. The goal will be to enable you to lead a life that is as normal and symptom-free as possible. What is rhinitis? Rhinitis is a term describing the symptoms produced by nasal irritation or inflammation. Symptoms of rhinitis include runny nose, itching, sneezing and stuffy nose due to blockage or congestion. These symptoms are the nose's natural response to inflammation and irritation, and they are often associated with itching of the eyes. Arbitrarily, rhinitis lasting less than six weeks is called acute rhinitis, and persistent symptoms are called chronic rhinitis. Acute rhinitis is usually caused by infections or chemical irritation. Chronic rhinitis may be caused by allergy or a variety of other factors. The nose normally produces mucus, which traps substances like dust, pollen, pollution, and germs such as bacteria and viruses. Mucus flows from the front of the nose and drains down the back of the throat. When mucus production is excessive, it can flow from the front, as a runny nose, or become noticeable from the back, as post-nasal drip. Nasal mucus, normally a thin, clear liquid, can become thick or colored, perhaps due to dryness, infection or pollution. When post-nasal drip is excessive, thick, or contains irritating substances, cough is the natural response for clearing the throat.

This fact sheet reviews these conditions and current treatments. Atopic Rhinitis There are three types of atopic (associated with allergic-like symptoms) rhinitis. Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis (also known as hay fever) This is triggered by allergy to pollens, including trees in spring, grasses in summer and weeds in fall. Symptoms include sneezing, itching, tickling in the nose, runny or stuffy nose and watery or itchy eyes. Seasonal rhinitis is diagnosed primarily by your medical history. Skin testing is not always indicated, especially if your symptoms are mild. Perennial Rhinitis (year-round) with Allergic Triggers These triggers include indoor allergens such as mold, house dust mite, cockroach and animal dander. Symptoms are the same as seasonal allergic rhinitis but are experienced throughout the year. The health care provider makes the diagnosis for perennial rhinitis by your medical history and positive skin tests to relevant allergens.

WHILE THE MAJORITY OF SUCH EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED FOLLOWING SUBSTANTIAL OVERDOSES OF ASTEMIZOLE, TORSADES DE POINTES (ARRHYTHMIAS) HAVE VERY RARELY OCCURRED AT REPORTED DOSES AS LOW AS 20- 30 MG DAILY (2- 3 TIMES THE RECOMMENDED DAILY DOSE).
