Treatment of atrophic rhinitis with traditional Chinese Medicine

summary

I have a roommate who suffers from rhinitis. If the weather is cold, she will easily have a runny nose. So I often see her carry several packages of napkins wherever she goes. With the doctor's treatment and taking medicine for 2 days, she obviously feels better. Let me share with you the experience of treating atrophic rhinitis with traditional Chinese medicine.

Treatment of atrophic rhinitis with traditional Chinese Medicine

Treatment 1: when rhinitis has nasal discharge, people like to blow it to relieve nasal congestion. However, if you can't blow your nose properly, especially if you squeeze both nostrils tightly with your thumb and index finger and try your best to blow your nose hard, it may cause the nasal mucus with bacteria and virus to enter the middle ear through the eustachian tube and secondary to acute otitis media.

Treatment 2: nasal drops. Commonly used 1% ephedrine solution, children with 0.5% ephedrine solution nasal drops, in order to reduce nasal congestion and turbinate swelling, 3-4 times a day, can eliminate nasal congestion. Furacilin ephedrine solution (Furama) can also be used. It is better to drop nasal drops after blowing nose. Biyanjing drops can effectively relieve nasal congestion and can be used for a short time. It is suitable for infants not to use biyanjing.

Treatment 3: symptomatic treatment of systemic symptoms, (1) for example, keganmin tablets are cheap and have little side effects. They are effective for headache, nasal congestion and sneezing. (2) Compound aspirin tablet (APC) has antipyretic and analgesic effect, but it is not suitable for patients with gastric and duodenal ulcer. (3) The following proprietary Chinese medicines (OTC) without doctor's prescription can be purchased at the discretion of the pharmacy.
