ALLERGIC RHINITIS AND SOME OF ITS FACTORS

The literature review describes the etiology, clinical picture, differential diagnosis and treatment of allergic rhinitis and emphasizes the role of doctors in improving care for patients with this disease. Allergic rhinitis (AR) is an atopic disease that manifests itself with symptoms of sneezing, nasal congestion, clear rhinorrhea and itching in the nose. It is an IgE-mediated immune response that is directed against inhaled antigens in the immediate phase, followed by a leukotriene-mediated late phase.
