Nose is a sense organ which performs two functions ie;olfactory (sense of smell) and respiratory. Due to its direct contact with external environment it is exposed to lot of microorganisms, allergens and pollutants present in the atmosphere.

 Allergic rhinitis is the inflamation of the nasal mucosa leading to runny/stuffynose, sneezing, redness and itching of eyes, throat, ears. It is a common problem among all age groups and is a leading cause of hospital visits worldwide.

 Allergic rhinitis is caused when a person get exposed to allergens such as pollen, animal hair, dust. In some cases inherited genetics and environmental exposures contribute to the development of allergic rhinitis.

 According to Ayurveda, causes for allergic rhinitis

  • Poor digestive power
  • Indigestion
  • Excessive intake of cold water
  • Excessive intake of heavy, sweet and cold substances

The above mentioned causes lead to disturbance in the metabolism  and causes production of toxins. This disturbs the balance of the three pillars of the body namely vata, pitta, and kapha and leads to allergic rhinitis.Once the person is presenting with allergic manifestation, if it is not managed at the right time and if the faulty dietary habits are not corrected, the disease enters into a chronic phase.

 According to Ayurveda–It can be correlated to Pathisyaya which is considered as the root cause for all the nasal diseases.

 Complications: – If prathisyaya  is not treated on time and is neglected then it may lead to

  • Blindness
  • Deafness
  • Anosmia
