Abstract:
This literature review collates and summarizes recent literature to explore the relationship between chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) and allergy. The relationship between CRS and allergy is not fully understood. However, current evidence suggests a relationship between allergy and specific endotypes of CRS with nasal polyposis, including allergic fungal rhinosinusitis and central compartment atopic disease. Specific endotypes of CRS with nasal polyps seem to have an association with allergy. More evidence is necessary to better characterize this relationship. Level of evidence: 5.

Etiology
It often arises from persistent viral or bacterial infections affecting sinuses and tonsils.
Additional contributing factors include inadequate dental hygiene, mouth breathing, recurring tonsillitis, allergic rhinitis, laryngopharyngeal reflux, and exposure to smoke, chemicals, and other environmental pollutants. Allergic reactions to pollen, mold, and pet dander, chronic cough, excessive voice usage,...
