Allergic Rhinitis is an allergic inflammation or swelling of the mucous linning of the nose caused by exposure or inhalation of dust,pollen,moulds and flakes of some animals. Allergic Rhinitis is characterised by runny and itchy nose,fever,sneezing and cold like symptoms.

Explanation: It should be explained to the caregiver in details that Allergic Rhinitis is triggered once there is an exposure to pollen, moulds,dusts and flakes from certain animals therefore exposure to allergens should be greatly discouraged and reduced to the minimum to prevent a recurrent attack.

There should also be strict compliance to prescribed medication like anti-allergies, nasal decongestants, analgesics and nasal sprays as poor management of the condition can predispose the child to Asthma,nasal polyps,middle ear infection and sinusitis.

Caregiving should ensure a proper hand washing hygiene.
