Chronic rhinitis in South Africa - more than just allergy!

South African medical journal = Suid-Afrikaanse tydskrif vir geneeskunde, Volume 110, No. 7, Year 2020

Chronic rhinitis is a troublesome condition for sufferers. It is tempting to label all patients with chronic nasal symptoms as having allergic rhinitis (AR), but many such patients have other causes of chronic rhinitis that need a specific diagnosis and management strategy. Even when the patient fully fits the definition of AR, their condition will be best served by combining medication with ongoing patient education.
