This disorder is usually caused by allergens such as pollen and dust. Commonly  known as hay fever, <strong>allergic rhinitis<\/strong> may exhibit the following symptoms:<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"#\" title=\"The symptoms of allergic rhinitis are\">The symptoms of allergic rhinitis are:<\/a><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li> You may experience a runny nose and congestion in the nose<\/li>\n<li> You may have allergic conjunctivitis where your eyes turn itchy and watery<\/li>\n<li> Persistent coughing<\/li>\n<li> Symptoms of sneezing<\/li>\n<li> Swelling may develop underneath the eyes<\/li>\n<li> You may have an itchy nose<\/li>\n<li> Constant signs of fatigue<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><a href=\"#\" title=\"Causes\">Causes<\/a><\/h2>\n<p> <strong>Allergic rhinitis<\/strong> or hay fever  causes the immune system to recognize certain airborne substances as harmful.  The immune system in the body starts to form antibodies to combat these  irritants. The antibodies cause the body to release \u201chistamine\u201d, a chemical  that triggers the symptoms of allergic rhinitis.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"#\" title=\"The various triggers  that may cause allergic rhinitis are\">The various triggers  that may cause allergic rhinitis are:<\/a><\/h2>\n<ul class=\"list47\">\n<li> Dust mites<\/li>\n<li> Tree pollen<\/li>\n<li> Grass pollen<\/li>\n<li> Spoors from outdoor and indoor fungi<\/li>\n<li> Ragweed pollen<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"clear\"><\/div>\n<p> The treatment for this  disorder is to avoid exposure to the triggers. Mild symptoms of this disorder  may be treated with over-the-counter medications whereas severe symptoms may  require prescription medications.<\/p>\n<h2><a href=\"#\" title=\"The various medications for allergic  rhinitis are\">The various medications for allergic  rhinitis are:<\/a><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Antihistamines:&nbsp;<\/strong>Antihistamines may be administered as pills or nasal       sprays; these medications can help with itching and sneezing. Antihistamines       help in limiting the effects of histamine in the body.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nasal       corticosteroids:&nbsp;<\/strong>These prescription medications       can help treat itching and inflammation in the nose. They are usually the       first medications that are administered.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Decongestants:&nbsp;<\/strong>Decongestants are over-the-counter medications that can       be used to treat congestion in the nose. You should be careful not to       overuse these medicines as they can increase blood pressure.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Allergy shots:&nbsp;<\/strong>If medications do not relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis,  the doctor may prescribe allergy shots to treat the disorder. The injections  contain allergens in small amounts which are injected over a period of time;  this causes the body to get used to these allergens, resulting in a reduction  of the symptoms. If you wish to discuss about any specific problem, you can  consult a doctor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Allergic rhinitis is characterized by symptoms of a runny nose, congestion, itchy eyes and sneezing.
