Rhinitis - inflammatory disease of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity, one of the most common phenomena which is cold. This is the most common ailment that is familiar to everyone. He worries and infants, and pregnant women, and sportsmen, and retirees. Rhinitis is a manifestation of rhinitis with ARI and influenza, allergic rhinitis with hay fever and occupational rhinitis, rhinitis during pregnancy and other forms of rhinosinusitis, and treatment of rhinitis, especially chronic, is an honest problem. Acute rhinitis is caused by falling into a bacterial or viral infection of the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity. May accompany acute infectious diseases (influenza, measles, scarlet fever, etc.). Acute rhinitis passes through three stages. At the first stage there is a feeling of itch and dryness in the nasal cavity, sneezing, headache, fever, malaise. The disease begins with a feeling of dryness in the nose, sneezing, a burning sensation in the throat and nasopharynx. This condition may occur within a few hours (from 2-3 to 24 and more), followed by a second phase. The patient appeared clear, watery nasal discharge, nasal breathing difficulty there. The patient feels a sense of laying the nose, there is profuse watery, and then dull and mucous-purulent discharge. At the same time having a feeling of heaviness or pain in the head, nasal, red eyes, neuralgic pain in the face. Difficult nasal breathing, especially in the prone position. hypertrophic rhinitis with nasal congestion a constant does not change with a change of head and body. Mucus is a thick, viscous consistency and is separated with difficulty. In atrophic rhinitis the patient feels a constant sense of dryness and itching in the nose, difficulty breathing, relaxation of smell. As a result of the forced removal of crusts by the patient may experience bleeding. In the third stage of the course of disease is changing - there are signs of recovery: improving breathing, nasal discharge becoming mucopurulent character, gradually decreasing their number, the mucous membrane becomes less edematous. Acute rhinitis - one of the most frequent diseases of the upper respiratory tract. Most often it is caused by infection, but may be a symptom of an infectious disease (influenza, measles, etc.). Chronic rhinitis is the result not ended the acute inflammation, infectious diseases (syphilis, etc.), occupational hazard, the presence of adenoids. Treatment for acute rhinitis rhinitis usually lasts 7-10 days, but in some cases, the disease takes a chronic form. Chronic rhinitis - a long-term inflammation in the nasal mucosa resulting from exposure to the nasal mucosa of microbial agents and the environment (dust, gases, damp air). Typically, chronic runny nose or rhinitis occurs after acute rhinitis as a continuation of it. Or may be a manifestation of chronic sinusitis, chronic etmoidita. Chronic rhinitis / common cold are divided into catarrhal, hypertrophic, atrophic, vasomotor. Chronic catarrhal rhinitis. It is a continuation of the bad treatment of acute rhinitis, resulting in a microbial agent is deeply embedded in the mucous membrane, produces a persistent destructive (including dystrophic) changes, thereby violating its protective (immune) function. Chronic hypertrophic rhinitis is characterized by constant and pronounced nasal breathing difficulty arising from the irreversible expansion and thickening of the mucous membrane of the lower part of the nose. Patients also reported a violation of olfactory mucous-purulent discharge from the nose, headache, nasal, reducing care. The reduction or lack of sense of smell (anosmia and hypo-) in chronic rhinitis is the result of an inflammatory thickening of the mucosa, which disables the olfactory region of the nose. Chronic atrophic rhinitis is the result of long-acting (in production), dust, gases, vasoconstrictive drops, chronic infection, microbial toxins in the mucosa of the nasal discharge scanty viscous mucous, which dries up in the crust, resulting in their accumulation makes it difficult not only nasal breathing, and drainage of the nasal cavity, which exacerbates a chronic rhinitis accession putrefactive indolent infection. Allergic rhinitis. Typically, allergic process precedes the beginning of chronic inflammation in the nasal mucosa, and secondarily arises allergy. The main manifestations of this rhinitis are sneezing, rhinorrhea (heavy discharge from the nose), difficulty of nasal breathing. Vasomotor rhinitis develops as a result of violations of nervous regulation mechanisms which determine the normal physiology of the nose. As a result, even normal stimuli cause increased response nasal mucosa and disturbed regulation of vascular nasal mucosa. Treatment rhinitis To restore the patency of air through the nose, apply a drop of vasoconstrictive solutions. However, in the treatment of rhinitis should be to recommend caution to patients with essential hypertension. Contraindications are also angle-closure glaucoma, atrophic rhinitis, hypersensitivity to the drug. Length of local application of drops is limited to 8.10 days. Longer and frequent spazmirovanie vessels of the nasal mucosa leads to a persistent reduction of vascular tone. As a result, the mucous membrane becomes haemo-filled and so thick that aggravates nasal breathing, makes treatment of rhinitis. It is also recommended burying the nose drops with a solution or protargola collargol, hlorofillipta - after the preliminary blowing. Blowing to turn each nostril - can not blow his nose with two nostrils at the same time - it leads to increased pressure in the nasal cavity and bleeding. Treatment of rhinitis: * Elimination of possible endo-and exogenous factors causing and maintaining a runny nose; * Individual selection of complex drugs and physiotherapy. * Surgical treatment of rhinitis (indication). Principles of treatment of rhinitis: * Local effects on nasal mucosa o reorganization, clearing the respiratory tract o restoration of patency of the airway o regeneration of mucous membranes o removal hyperreactivity (allergies), mucous The overall impact on the entire body. o immunomodulation o fight against a common allergy organism How easy and at the same time securely protect themselves from the ubiquitous head cold and its inevitable companion - sinusitis? You can walk in the insulating mask, but it is certainly not the solution.
