What are the most common causes of allergic rhinitis

In daily life, many people are often troubled by unbearable nasal itching, continuous sneezing and clear runny nose at some inadvertent moment. This is likely to be the "attack" of allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis, as a high-incidence nasal disease, greatly affects the quality of life of patients. To effectively prevent and treat it, identifying the most common causes is the key first step.

 

Air pollen: nature's "allergy messenger"

In spring, flowers bloom, and while releasing their beauty, they also spread a lot of pollen into the air. Pollen from poplars and willows is scattered everywhere with the help of wind; in autumn, weeds such as wormwood also join the "pollen army". When these tiny pollen particles are inhaled by people with allergic constitutions, the immune system will misjudge them as dangerous substances, and then initiate an immune response, release inflammatory mediators, cause congestion and edema of the nasal mucosa, and cause symptoms such as nasal itching, sneezing, and runny nose. For people who are allergic to pollen, wearing professional anti-pollen masks when going out during seasons with high pollen concentrations and minimizing going out during peak pollen transmission periods can effectively reduce the risk of allergies.

 

Dust mite breeding: "invisible allergens" indoors

In our warm homes, there are a large number of dust mites hidden in mattresses, pillows, sofas and other places. They feed on human dandruff and reproduce in large numbers in warm and humid environments. The corpses, excrement and secretions of dust mites are all potent allergens. When we turn over in sleep and raise dust during daily activities, these allergens will enter the nasal cavity, irritate the nasal mucosa, and induce allergic rhinitis. Keeping the room clean and dry, changing bedding regularly, and using mattresses and pillowcases made of anti-mite fabrics are effective ways to reduce the breeding and contact of dust mites.

 

Pet fur: cute "allergy risk"

Today, many families have pets, which bring joy and companionship to people. However, the protein contained in pet fur, dandruff and saliva is a potential threat to people with allergies. When you have close contact with your pet or when your pet is active in the room, these allergens will float in the air and trigger allergic reactions when inhaled by the human body. If you are allergic to pets, try to keep your pet away from the bedroom, bathe and comb your pet's hair regularly to reduce the residue of allergens in the room.

 

Fungal spores: the "culprit of allergies" in humid corners

In humid environments, such as bathrooms, kitchen corners, basements, etc., fungi are easy to grow and multiply. The spores produced by fungi are spread with the flow of air. When people with allergies inhale these spores, they may cause allergic rhinitis. Especially in the rainy season or when the air humidity is high, the growth of fungi is more vigorous. Keeping the room well ventilated, cleaning up the accumulated water in time, and using a dehumidifier to reduce the indoor humidity can effectively inhibit the growth of fungi and reduce the production of allergens.

 

When allergic rhinitis occurs due to these triggers, DeepCozy Electric Nasal Irrigation System can play an important role in alleviating it. This nasal irrigation device uses a gentle stream of water to fully clean the nasal cavity. It can wash away allergens such as pollen, dust mites, pet dander, fungal spores attached to the nasal mucosa, reducing the continuous stimulation of these allergens on the nasal mucosa. It is like a "big cleaning" for the nasal cavity, keeping the nasal mucosa in a relatively clean environment.

At the same time, the flushing process of DeepCozy Electric Nasal Irrigation System can also relieve inflammation of the nasal mucosa. Its gentle water flow will not cause secondary damage to the already sensitive nasal mucosa, but can reduce congestion and edema of the nasal mucosa, and relieve symptoms such as nasal itching and nasal congestion. Moreover, regular use of the device for nasal irrigation can also enhance the resistance of the nasal mucosa, making the nasal mucosa more "strong" when facing allergens, and reducing the frequency and severity of allergic rhinitis.

 

The most common causes of allergic rhinitis are varied, including pollen in the air, dust mites in the room, pet dander, mold in a humid environment, and certain foods. Understanding these causes, we can take corresponding preventive measures in our daily lives to reduce the onset of allergic rhinitis. If you have unfortunately developed allergic rhinitis, don't worry too much. Seek medical attention promptly, follow the doctor's treatment recommendations, and try to avoid contact with triggers. This will effectively control the symptoms, making our breathing easier and our lives better.
