When the seasons change or when exposed to specific allergens, many people experience symptoms such as nasal discomfort, frequent sneezing, and runny nose. This may be caused by allergic rhinitis. As a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa with a high incidence worldwide, allergic rhinitis not only affects respiratory function, but also reduces the quality of life.
Four typical symptoms of allergic rhinitis
Nasal itching: unbearable "internal itching"
Nasal itching is the first symptom of allergic rhinitis. It is caused by allergens (such as pollen and dust mites) irritating the nasal mucosa, triggering the immune system to release inflammatory mediators such as histamine, and directly stimulating nerve endings. Patients often feel itching deep in the nasal cavity or even in the throat and ear canal, and can't help rubbing or picking their noses, but excessive stimulation may aggravate mucosal damage. For example, when the pollen concentration increases in spring, patients may experience persistent nasal itching after outdoor activities, accompanied by frequent sneezing.
Paroxysmal sneezing: serial "attacks"
Sneezing is a reflex action of the body trying to expel allergens. Patients with allergic rhinitis usually sneeze in paroxysmal patterns, with 3-5 or even dozens of sneezes in succession each time, especially in the morning, at night, or after contact with allergens. This "serial sneezing" not only affects social image, but may also cause rupture and bleeding of the nasal mucosa. For example, when people with dust mite allergies make their beds, the dust mite particles raised by the dust mite particles may irritate the nasal cavity, causing severe sneezing.
Clear watery nasal discharge: "unstoppable clear flow"
Allergic reactions activate the glands of the nasal mucosa, leading to hypersecretion and producing a large amount of transparent, thin, clear watery nasal discharge. Patients often need to wipe their noses frequently. In severe cases, the nasal discharge may drip involuntarily, and may even cause chapped skin around the nose or infection. For example, during the autumn wormwood pollen transmission period, patients may use a pack of tissues a day, and the amount of nasal discharge fluctuates with the pollen concentration.
Nasal congestion: an "invisible obstacle" to breathing
Nasal congestion is caused by swelling of the nasal mucosa and secretions blocking the nasal passages, and the degree varies from person to person. In mild cases, the patient only feels labored breathing, while in severe cases, the nasal cavity may be completely blocked, forcing the patient to breathe through the mouth. Nasal congestion worsens when lying flat at night, leading to snoring and hypoxia during sleep, which in turn causes daytime sleepiness and decreased attention. For example, children may have "adenoid facies" due to long-term nasal congestion affecting facial development.
DeepCozy Electric Nasal Irrigation System: A scientific tool to relieve symptoms
For the four major symptoms of allergic rhinitis, DeepCozy electric nasal irrigator provides multi-dimensional relief solutions through physical flushing and gentle care:
Deep cleaning to reduce allergen stimulation
The device uses pulsed water flow technology to penetrate into various parts of the nasal cavity, effectively remove attached allergens such as pollen, dust mites, and animal dander, and reduce the risk of continuous irritation of the mucosa. For example, after using it during the spring pollen season, the patient's nasal itching and sneezing frequency can be significantly reduced.
Dilute secretions and relieve nasal congestion
Rinsing with saline can soften and dilute sticky nasal mucus, reduce secretion accumulation, and help restore nasal ventilation. For nasal congestion caused by swollen mucosa, flushing can promote local blood circulation and reduce edema. Clinical studies have shown that nasal flushing twice a day can reduce nasal congestion symptoms by more than 40%.
Gentle care, repair nasal mucosa
DeepCozy is equipped with an adjustable water flow intensity function to avoid secondary damage to sensitive mucosa by traditional flushing methods. Its matching special flushing salt contains natural minerals, which can form a weak alkaline environment, inhibit bacterial growth, and accelerate mucosal repair. For example, long-term use can reduce the occurrence of nosebleeds and perirhinal skin inflammation.
Convenient operation, suitable for daily use
The device is ergonomically designed, with one-button start and automatic stop, and can be easily operated by both the elderly and children. It is recommended to use it once a day in the morning and evening, 2-3 minutes each time, combined with deep breathing movements to maximize the flushing effect. For those with severe symptoms, the frequency of use can be increased under the guidance of a doctor.
Comprehensive management: the key to symptom control
In addition to using a nasal irrigator, patients with allergic rhinitis also need to combine the following measures:
Environmental control: clean bedding regularly, use anti-mite covers, close doors and windows during pollen season and turn on air purifiers.
Drug treatment: use nasal hormones or antihistamines under the guidance of a doctor to quickly control inflammation.
Although the four major symptoms of allergic rhinitis are difficult to cure, scientific methods such as DeepCozy electric nasal irrigator, combined with environmental management and drug treatment, can significantly reduce discomfort and improve quality of life. If symptoms continue to worsen or complications such as asthma and sinusitis occur, be sure to seek medical attention in time and develop a personalized treatment plan. Remember, active protection and standardized treatment are the "golden rules" for controlling allergic rhinitis.
