C P Kimmelman, G H Ali

    Otolaryngologic Clinics of North America
    |February 1, 1986
    PubMed
    Summary

    Vasomotor rhinitis, a nonallergic nasal condition, stems from autonomic neural imbalance causing nasal congestion and runny nose. Treatment options exist but patient response is often disappointing.

    Area of Science:

    • Otolaryngology
    • Allergy and Immunology

    Background:

    • Vasomotor rhinitis presents as a nonallergic, noninfectious condition characterized by nasal obstruction and rhinorrhea.
    • Its underlying cause is thought to be an imbalance in the autonomic neural control of nasal mucosa, leading to vasodilation and hypersecretion.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the etiology and management strategies for vasomotor rhinitis.
    • To highlight the importance of identifying treatable conditions that may mimic vasomotor rhinitis.

    Main Methods:

    • Literature review of vasomotor rhinitis.
    • Discussion of diagnostic considerations and therapeutic modalities.

    Main Results:

    • Management requires identifying specific treatable entities like rhinitis medicamentosa or allergic rhinitis.
    • Psychotherapy, medical interventions, and surgical options are considered in treatment plans.

    Conclusions:

    • Despite various treatment approaches including psychotherapy, medical therapy, and surgery, the therapeutic response in vasomotor rhinitis is frequently unsatisfactory.
    • Further research may be needed to improve treatment efficacy for this condition.
