   Extractions: Allergies, including allergic rhinitis, affect an estimated 40 to 50 million people in the United States. Some allergies may interfere with day-to-day activities or lessen the quality of life. The allergist-immunologist, with his or her specialized training and expertise in managing allergies, allergic rhinitis, and asthma, can develop a treatment plan for your individual condition. The goal will be to enable you to lead a life that is as normal and symptom-free as possible. What is rhinitis? Rhinitis is a term describing the symptoms produced by nasal irritation or inflammation. Symptoms of rhinitis include runny nose, itching, sneezing and stuffy nose due to blockage or congestion. These symptoms are the nose's natural response to inflammation and irritation, and they are often associated with itching of the eyes. Arbitrarily, rhinitis lasting less than six weeks is called acute rhinitis, and persistent symptoms are called chronic rhinitis. Acute rhinitis is usually caused by infections or chemical irritation. Chronic rhinitis may be caused by allergy or a variety of other factors. The nose normally produces mucus, which traps substances like dust, pollen, pollution, and germs such as bacteria and viruses. Mucus flows from the front of the nose and drains down the back of the throat. When mucus production is excessive, it can flow from the front, as a runny nose, or become noticeable from the back, as post-nasal drip. Nasal mucus, normally a thin, clear liquid, can become thick or colored, perhaps due to dryness, infection or pollution. When post-nasal drip is excessive, thick, or contains irritating substances, cough is the natural response for clearing the throat.

   Extractions: Rhinorrhea Rhinitis Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal mucosa (the mucous membrane that lines the nose and the sinus ), often due to an allergic reaction to pollen dust or other airborne substances ( allergens ). Although the pathophysiology of many types of rhinitis is unknown, an accurate diagnosis is necessary, since not all types of rhinitis will respond to the same treatment measures. A heterogeneous disorder. Classification of chronic rhinitis: Allergic (seasonal and perennial) rhinitis Characterised by an inflammation of the nasal mucous membranes due to an allergic response. The most common of all atopic diseases in the United States, affecting up to 10% of the adult population. While no one dies directly as a result of allergic rhinitis, the economic impact is substantial. Over $600 million is spent in the USA annually in the management of this disease. This does not include the costs of the 2 million lost workdays, 3 million lost school days and 28 million days of decreased productivity from the symptoms of the disease and/or side effects of the medications used to treat them.

   Extractions: Tips to Remember: Rhinitis Do you have a runny or stuffy nose that doesn't seem to go away? If so, you may have rhinitis, which is an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nose. Rhinitis is one of the most common allergic conditions in the United States, affecting about 40 million people. It often coexists with other allergic disorders, such as asthma. It is important to treat rhinitis because it can contribute to other conditions such as sleep disorders, fatigue and learning problems. There are two general types of rhinitis: Allergic rhinitis

   Extractions: Allergic rhinitis: This condition occurs when the body’s immune system over-responds to specific, non-infectious particles such as plant pollens, molds, dust mites, animal hair, industrial chemicals (including tobacco smoke), foods, medicines, and insect venom. During an allergic attack, antibodies, primarily immunoglobin E (IgE), attach to mast cells (cells that release histamine) in the lungs, skin, and mucous membranes. Once IgE connects with the mast cells, a number of chemicals are released. One of the chemicals, histamine, opens the blood vessels and causes skin redness and swollen membranes. When this occurs in the nose, sneezing and congestion are the result. Seasonal allergic rhinitis or hayfever occurs in late summer or spring. Hypersensitivity to ragweed, not hay, is the primary cause of seasonal allergic rhinitis in 75 percent of all Americans who suffer from this seasonal disorder. People with sensitivity to tree pollen have symptoms in late March or early April; an allergic reaction to mold spores occurs in October and November as a consequence of falling leaves.

   Extractions: Sponsors and Advertisers Do you suffer from a runny or stuffy nose much of the time? You may not have given it much thought because it typically is not a serious condition. It can, however, be quite annoying. This condition is known as rhinitis. Approximately 40 million people in the U.S. suffer to one degree or another from rhinitis. Although hay fever, or seasonal allergic rhinitis, is the condition that most people are familiar with, there are different types of rhinitis. This fact sheet reviews these conditions and current treatments. Atopic Rhinitis There are three types of atopic (associated with allergic-like symptoms) rhinitis. Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis (also known as hay fever) This is triggered by allergy to pollens, including trees in spring, grasses in summer and weeds in fall. Symptoms include sneezing, itching, tickling in the nose, runny or stuffy nose and watery or itchy eyes. Seasonal rhinitis is diagnosed primarily by your medical history. Skin testing is not always indicated, especially if your symptoms are mild. Perennial Rhinitis (year-round) with Allergic Triggers These triggers include indoor allergens such as mold, house dust mite, cockroach and animal dander. Symptoms are the same as seasonal allergic rhinitis but are experienced throughout the year. The health care provider makes the diagnosis for perennial rhinitis by your medical history and positive skin tests to relevant allergens.

    Extractions: Go Back Nutrition for a Living Planet - Home Page Hay fever (allergic rhinitis or pollinosis) Hay fever (allergic rhinitis or pollinosis), is an allergy characterized by sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, a runny nose and a burning sensation of the palate and throat. It is usually caused by allergies to airborne substances such as dust, moulds, pollens, animal fur and feathers. It is often aggravated by a food allergy, the most common being an allergy to milk. Hay fever is most common in people with a family history of similar complaints or a personal history of eczema, hives (urticaria), and/or asthma. The best treatment is avoidance of the allergen. However, since this is not always possible, a variety of antihistamines, decongestants, and intranasal steroids may be prescribed. Various essential oils help with the symptoms, but the specifics vary from person to person. Oils that have been recommended by aromatherapists include Blue Camomile, Lemon Balm Lavender , and an increase of Vitamin C and Beta carotene should promote healing of the mucus membranes. Each spring, summer, and fall, tiny particles are released from trees, weeds, and grasses. These particles, known as pollen, hitch rides on currents of air. Although their mission is to fertilize parts of other plants, many never reach their targets. Instead, they enter human noses and throats, triggering a type of seasonal allergic rhinitis called pollen allergy, which many people know as hay fever or rose fever (depending on the season in which the symptoms occur). Of all the things that can cause an allergy, pollen is one of the most widespread. Many of the foods, drugs, or animals that cause allergies can be avoided to a great extent; even insects and household dust are escapable. Short of staying indoors when the pollen count is highand even that may not helpthere is no easy way to evade windborne pollen.

    rhinitis. I live in Southern California and the Santa Ana winds bring in pollen that clogs my sinuses. The result is laryngitis, and I constantly sound hoarse.  
    http://allergy.mcg.edu/askIra/rhinitis.html
    
    Extractions: You should avoid exposure to the Santa Ana winds as much as possible. Stay indoors when feasible. Wear a dust mask or simple paint mask when out in the winds. You should use antihistamine medication as soon as you are aware that conditions for the winds exist. Use over-the-counter antihistamines, or ask your physician for a prescription medication. There are long-acting antihistamines which are non-sedating (they won't make you sleepy), and effective nasal steroid sprays also are available. If you still have problems, ask your physician to refer you to an allergist who can find out if you are allergic to specific pollens or molds carried by the winds. You can be shown how to avoid specific allergens or given immunization against the allergens you cannot avoid.

Date Omalizumab (Xolair) is a recombinant humanized monoclonal anti-IgE antibody that binds to IgE on the same Fc site as Fc R1. Omalizumab causes a reduction in total serum IgE in atopic patients, which attenuates the amount of antigen-specific IgE that can bind to and sensitize tissue mast cells and basophils. This, in turn, leads to a decrease in symptoms of allergic diseases. The monoclonal antibody contains 5% murine sequences (needed for the IgE binding portion) and 95% human residues from a human IgG 1 kappa framework. Omalizumab reduces the amount of free IgE (the unbound form present in the circulation) available to bind to Fc R1 receptors and results in a reduction in the expression of high affinity IgE receptors. Omalizumab does not bind to IgE already bound to effector cells.

    Extractions: Contents Allergic Rhinitis Non-allergic rhinitis Videos Do you have a runny or stuffy nose that doesn’t seem to go away? If so, you may have rhinitis. Rhinitis is an inflammation of the mucous membranes of the nose. This inflammation is called allergic rhinitis or non-allergic rhinitis, depending on the cause of the inflammation. Update Allergic rhinitis is caused by substances that trigger allergies, called allergens . Specific allergens can be found both outdoors and indoors. When allergic rhinitis is caused by common outdoor allergens—such as airborne tree, grass and weed pollens or mold—it is often referred to as seasonal allergies, or "hay fever." The time and duration of the different pollen and mold seasons can vary, depending on where you live in the country. Allergic rhinitis may also be triggered by common indoor allergens such as animal dander, indoor mold, or the droppings of cockroaches or house dust mites—microscopic creatures found in the home. When this is the case, these allergies are called perennial allergies, because symptoms may last year-round.
