For an adequate assessment of the severity of the process, the correct choice of the method of treatment and the precise prosthetics of the course of the disease, the study of complaints and anamnesis is of great importance. It is necessary to accurately determine the form (intermittent or persistent) of allergic rhinitis for each patient. The main complaints of patients: discharge from the nose, nasal congestion and sneezing attacks. DDL diagnosis requires the presence of two or more symptoms lasting at least 1 hour a day for a long time.

Depending on the prevalence of these or other symptoms of allergic rhinitis, there are 2 variants of the clinical course of the disease: the so-called exsessive and obstructive.

Features of clinical manifestations of obstructive and obstructive allergic rhinitis

Allergic inflammation is not limited to the mucosa of the nasal cavity. Quite often in patients with allergic rhinitis, there are foci of chronic infection and other diseases of the upper respiratory tract (sinusitis, polyposis of the nasal cavity in combination with polyposis sinusitis and, as a rule, maxilloemitis, otitis media).
