Treatment
The treatment of allergic rhinitis always be personalized, but generally has three facets:
1– Avoid as far as possible contact with the allergen.
2– Increase tolerance through immunotherapy (shots).
3– Pharmacological treatment with antihistamines and/or corticosteroids, both nasal and orally.
The Allergy has a genetic component and, because of that, the patient tends to respond in the same way against a particular stimulus. What you get treatment is to increase tolerance.
In this way, so that the patient gave the same answer as before treatment, will take more concentration of allergen. That is why, although it fails to cure the allergy everything can be kept open patient symptoms.
