Vasomotor rhinitis is an inflammation of the soft tissues of the nasopharynx, resulting in swelling of the lower nasal concha. This leads to difficulty breathing. As a rule, this disease is observed in people who suffer from autonomic disorders.
A small negative effect on the nerve endings that are located in the nasal cavity, or the irritation of the remaining reflex zones leads to a runny nose.
The disease is manifested by nasal congestion, which occurs as a result of pressure drops, the appearance of pungent odors or taking medications. Often the signs of this disease are serous or mucous discharge. If vasomotor rhinitis is often exacerbated, this leads to the fact that the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity is significantly compacted, which leads to respiratory failure.
The fact is that relapses of the disease can lead to the development of sinusitis, therefore, treatment of vasomotor rhinitis should begin immediately after diagnosis. For a more accurate diagnosis of the disease, a nasal endoscopy is performed , which allows the doctor to examine the smallest details of the nasal cavity and determine the complexity of the arising disorders. Sometimes, in order to determine the cause that provoked the development of this disease, it is also necessary to consult a therapist, gynecologist and cardiologist.
Treatment of vasomotor rhinitis, as a rule, implies a set of procedures that include therapeutic methods of treating the autonomic system, as well as specialized treatment aimed at improving vascular tone, reducing the excitability of nerve endings located in the nasal cavity. To achieve a similar effect, medications are prescribed, as well as a course of physiotherapeutic procedures or surgical intervention. Among modern methods of treating the disease, laser irradiation, radio wave surgery, exposure using ultrasound and cryotherapy are used.
Today, the treatment of vasomotor rhinitis with the use of traditional medicine is very popular and quite effective. There are several proven recipes that have proven effective. However, before using them, you must always consult your doctor.
The use of sea salt helps a lot. Salt water creates an environment that adversely affects pathogenic microbes, and also acts as a moisturizer of the nasal cavity. To prepare a saline solution, it is necessary to take 90 g of sea salt and dissolve in a liter of boiled warm water. In order to clean the nose, you need to take a syringe or syringe without a needle, collect a solution and rinse it with each nostril several times a day. So that the treatment of vasomotor rhinitis is supplemented by hardening of the nasal cavity, you can gradually lower the temperature of the water used for the solution.
Honey also helps in the treatment of this disease. To do this, take 200-250 ml of water and add a full teaspoon of honey. Then everything is thoroughly stirred and used according to the method of using the previous solution.
Turning to the question of how to treat rhinitis, we can also recall the beneficial effects of aromatherapy. In this case, fir oil is most useful, which calms the nervous system and has a bactericidal effect. To do this, just add a few drops of oil to hot water and breathe in pairs. You can also use a scented lamp. Fir oil can be rubbed into the maxillary sinuses. However, for this purpose it is mixed with olive or sunflower. It is important to remember that such treatment is contraindicated for those who have an allergic or acute form of rhinitis, because this can only aggravate the disease and provoke a spasm.
The best effect in the treatment of vasomotor rhinitis is achieved when traditional medicine is combined with traditional methods of treatment.
