Chronic pharyngitis and chronic rhinitis are both relatively common otolaryngological diseases. In terms of treatment, the use of oral medications and nasal sprays is common. Some patients can also use saline solution to rinse the nasal cavity, but currently, there is no particularly effective way to completely cure these conditions. The main treatment strategy is to control the condition and alleviate symptoms, reducing the likelihood of acute outbreaks, but they cannot be completely cured and may recur. However, overall, chronic pharyngitis and rhinitis do not pose a significant threat to overall health or life safety.

Can people with chronic rhinitis swim?

People with chronic rhinitis can swim, but it is advisable to refrain from swimming during an acute flare-up. If it's just ordinary chronic rhinitis without noticeable acute inflammation, swimming is possible and may even be somewhat beneficial for rhinitis. However, attention should be paid to the cleanliness and hygiene of the swimming pool. If the pool is not up to hygiene standards, water entering the nasal passages can exacerbate existing rhinitis or trigger an acute flare-up. Therefore, this is a point of concern. If it's just ordinary chronic rhinitis and the pool meets swimming standards, swimming should be fine and not particularly harmful to either rhinitis or overall health.

How long should medicine be taken for chronic rhinitis?

Chronic rhinitis is a relatively common ENT disorder with a high incidence among the population. In terms of treatment, if the inflammatory reaction is mild and there are no obvious clinical symptoms, it can generally be considered to periodically re-examine without the immediate use of medication. However, if the condition of chronic rhinitis is severe and accompanied by symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, and reduced sense of smell, targeted treatment should be considered. It is advisable to undergo nasopharyngoscopy and sinus CT scans to assess the severity of the condition. Most patients can consider oral medication treatments. In addition, nasal spray medications can be used in combination. During treatment, regular follow-ups are necessary to observe the effects, and the treatment period is generally about one to two weeks. (Specific medication use should be conducted under the guidance of a doctor.)

What to do with chronic rhinitis headaches?

Chronic rhinitis is a relatively common ENT disease with various clinical symptoms, the most common of which are nasal congestion, runny nose, and reduced sense of smell. Some patients may experience headaches. In such cases, it is necessary to visit an ENT department. Examinations like a sinus CT and head CT can be conducted to inspect the nasal cavity, sinuses, and to check for any intracranial lesions. If the issue is simply an inflammatory reaction, medication treatment can be chosen. Common treatments include oral medications and nasal sprays, and the nasal cavity can be rinsed with saline solution. During the treatment process, regular follow-up visits are necessary to monitor recovery, and most patients can recover smoothly within about a week. (Please use medication under the guidance of a doctor.)

Is medication effective for chronic rhinitis?

Most patients with chronic rhinitis find oral medications somewhat effective, but the specific effects and outcomes can vary from person to person. Some may experience good results, while others may find the effects not particularly satisfactory and may need to consider using nasal sprays or saline nasal irrigations. The main function is to improve nasal ventilation, alleviate nasal inflammation, and reduce or dilute nasal secretions. Overall, the primary approach to managing chronic rhinitis is controlling and alleviating the condition, as neither medical nor surgical treatments can cure it completely. The main strategy is regular check-ups, avoiding colds, avoiding irritants, and monitoring to control and relieve symptoms. (Please use medications under the guidance of a professional physician and do not medicate blindly.)
