Rhinitis

  • Category : Chest / Respiratory Disorders


Rhinitis is a common condition characterized by inflammation of the nasal lining, leading to symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose, nasal congestion, and itching. It can be caused by allergies, infections, irritants, or environmental factors like dust and pollution.

Rhinitis can significantly affect daily life by disturbing sleep, reducing concentration, and causing persistent discomfort. If left untreated, it may also lead to complications such as sinusitis or chronic nasal blockage.

In West Shalimar Bagh, patients receive expert diagnosis and effective treatment for both allergic and non-allergic rhinitis.

Dr. Deepak Kothari provides comprehensive rhinitis care focused on identifying triggers, controlling symptoms, and preventing recurrence.
