    This study on allergic rhinitis found sneezing is common in seasonal cases, while nasal blockage dominates perennial allergic rhinitis. Many patients also reported morning symptom severity.

    Area of Science:

    • Allergy and Immunology
    • Otorhinolaryngology
    • Epidemiology

    Background:

    • Allergic rhinitis affects a significant portion of the population, impacting quality of life.
    • Understanding the distinct characteristics of seasonal and perennial allergic rhinitis is crucial for effective management.
    • Family history and concomitant allergic conditions are often associated with allergic rhinitis.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To characterize the demographic, symptomatic, and etiological features of allergic rhinitis patients.
    • To compare and contrast the clinical presentation of seasonal versus perennial allergic rhinitis.
    • To investigate the prevalence of atopy, other allergic disorders, and animal hypersensitivity in allergic rhinitis patients.

    Main Methods:

    • A questionnaire-based study was conducted on 770 patients diagnosed with allergic rhinitis.

  • Data collected included demographics, symptom patterns (seasonal, perennial, mixed), age distribution, family history, and co-existing allergic conditions.
  • Specific symptom frequencies, timing of symptom severity, and associations with pet ownership and animal hypersensitivity were analyzed.

    • Main Results:

    • Sneezing was the most frequent symptom in seasonal allergic rhinitis, while nasal blockage was more common in perennial allergic rhinitis.
    • A significant correlation was observed between the duration of perennial allergic rhinitis and a decline in the sense of smell.
    • Over 50% of patients experienced symptoms during the 21-40 age group, with younger individuals more prevalent in the seasonal group.
    • Hypersensitivity to animals was more frequent in patients with pets, and 34% of pet owners developed symptoms around animals.

    Conclusions:

    • Allergic rhinitis presents with distinct symptom profiles based on seasonal or perennial patterns.
    • Early diagnosis and management of perennial allergic rhinitis may be important to prevent complications like olfactory dysfunction.
    • Environmental factors, including pet ownership and animal exposure, play a role in allergic rhinitis symptom exacerbation.
