Chronic Rhinitis

Runny nose that won’t go away?

We all get a cold from time to time. We have a runny nose and are grabbing tissues for a few days. It usually ends pretty shortly and we can get back to feeling great again. Unfortunately for sufferers of chronic rhinitis, this isn’t the case. 

Chronic rhinitis sufferers have a constant runny nose that interrupts their days. Many write it off as just a long cold or allergies. But chronic rhinitis can mean a more serious problem is going on. Why is your nose constantly running? Could there be an infection or inflammation?

Even though it may feel like it, chronic rhinitis does not have to be forever. At ENT South, we are dedicated to helping our patients find out what is causing their chronic rhinitis, and how we can help treat it. You deserve to feel relief, no one should have to suffer through. Schedule an appointment today to learn more about your condition.

What is Chronic Rhinitis?

Chronic rhinitis occurs when your nose’s lining becomes inflamed and irritated. If you have a runny nose or inflammation that has gone on for over four weeks, you may be suffering from chronic rhinitis. If you don’t work to treat your rhinitis then you may see the problem linger for months or even years longer.
