Avatar m tn He is a 36 year old male in great shape and good health BESIDES VR (Vasomotor Rhinitis). He has suffered his whole life with what he considered an allergy until he was dx with VR by a very reputable ENT in Madison WI. He grew up in Western Mass, has lived in Chicago, Virginia, Oregon (Portland) and now Madison, WI. All places he has lived offer NO relief. He has literally been sneezing, congested and in chronic "allergy" mode since December.
Avatar n tn Is there any hope for Vasomotor rhinits in the future??? I thought oral steroids are suppose to help with vasomotor rhinitis? Does the swelling and discoloration undereyes from vasomotor rhinitis ever go away? I aslo have swelling upper cheeks, almost to temple area and swelling on the side of of nose on the outside of my face.
345124 tn?1234483278 talk to ent doctor about vasomotor rhinitis. you can also have what is called as mixed rhinitis. There is no cure for vasomotor rhinitis. Mayo ent doctor told me to use nasal rinses twice a day for the rest of my life, use musinex tablets to keep drainage thin , use a humidifer. Doctor said the rinses may seem like they are not doing any good but they really are he said. Could have fooled me.
Avatar m tn Hello today the doctor told me I had Vasomotor Rhinitis and GERD. A few websites say they go hand in hand is this true?
Avatar n tn hi - I have nonallergic (Vasomotor Rhinitis) I know what you mean about this ruining your life. I have had this for 6 yrs. now. Constant 24/7 post nasal drainage, blocked nasal passages that clog up on one side then the other side. I have tried every nasal steroid spray that was ever invented I think and even oral steroids. Nothing helps. I irrigate my nasal passages twice a day with the NeilMed nasal bottle and the pre-mixed solution.
548980 tn?1214822412 Oversensitive blood vessels causes an overreaction to such stimuli as changes in weather, temperature, or barometric pressure, chemical irritants such as smoke, ozone, pollution, perfumes, and aerosol sprays, psychological stress and emotional shocks, certain types of medications, alcohol, and even spicy food.The pathology of vasomotor rhinitis is in fact not very well-understood and more research is needed.
Avatar f tn I went to an allergist. She said I wasn’t allergic, but I had vasomotor rhinitis. She gave me spray and it blocks the mucus so that’s no longer a problem. I’m still reacting. It’s not bad every time and the symptoms vary. Sinus pressure, headache, acid reflux and sometimes lose my voice. Why does this only happen at work? And, why after more than two years of working there.
Avatar m tn Hi, I personally feel CT/MRI is of little help, because what you are having is more of vasomotor rhinitis. Avoid using Afrin spray for a long time as it causes rhinitis medicamentosa - a condition where in you will be feeling better while using the spray, when you use it for long and discontinue there is rebound congestion of the nose. Try with oral decongestants and steroid spray; avoid getting exposed to perfumes and cologne. Best is to visit your ENT specialist for further management.
Avatar m tn It should be differentiated from vasomotor rhinitis and Atrophic rhinitis for which consult ENT specialist. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn Hi, The common causes for severe sneezing include allergies( to dust, pollen, pets, food etc), vasomotor rhinitis, upper respiratory infection, common cold or flu etc. You need to make note of what is causing a bout of sneezing in your case and try avoid it. Sudden severe sneezing is most commonly due to allergies, also as your symptoms are relieved by Claritin allergic etiology could be present. If severe allergy is present for multiple factors then immunotherapy should b e considered.
Avatar n tn what it sounds like to me is vasomotor rhinitis. Swollen turbinates- do you have post nasal drainage, thicker type down the back of your throat? I had about 50,000 dollars worth of testing also. Allergy tests, shots. mri's, sweat test, every test you can think of -all negative. Nasal steroid sprays, nasal rinses, oral steroids. I am so sick of these tests and expense and then i hear "vasomotor rhinitis" --NO CURE for this.
Avatar n tn Ten to one what you have is Vasomotor rhinitis. Sometime after a viral infection the nerve endings are affected and just become constantly irritated. They sometimes call this non allergic rhinitis or vasomotor rhinitis. I have the same problem for 6 yrs. now as well with a small fiber peripheral neuropathy after a bout with the flu bug. Had sinus surgery - did nothing but made it worse. I irrigate my nose 2-3 times a day with Neil- Med sinuse solution rinse for 6 yrs.
Avatar n tn Beyond that, only a physical exam can determine whether this is a mucosal/inflammation issue (eg, allergic rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis) or an anatomic issue (eg, septal deviation, turbinate hypertrophy). Find an ENT doc if these simple measures fail.
Avatar n tn The constant runny nose, sneezing, and nasal congestion could be due to vasomotor rhinitis, in which the symptoms occur in response to a trigger, like eating spicy food or going outside in the cold. The primary treatment is simply avoiding the things that trigger your symptoms. It is often treated with a drying nasal spray (like Atrovent) and antihistamines like chlopheneramine and lovatidine are effective. Nasal decongestant drops too relieve congestion.
Avatar f tn my mom, 59 yrs with high triglyceride and hypothyroid is suffreing from vasomotor rhinitis for 3 months and recently with running nose and all, she started coughing and one day I was sitting close to her and heard this kitten meowing! I was shocked and concerned, however couldn't find anyrhig useful so far apart from the watercress soup. please can anyone help me?
Avatar n tn I know exactly how you feel as I have Vasomotor rhinitis as well. I have been to so many ENT doctors and there is not really nothing that they can do. I have had all the scopes in the nose, down the throat, CT scan, MRI, blood work and everything shows up fine. I know what you mean about the nasal sprays, I think I have tried every single one that was ever made and that did not help either.
Avatar n tn I would bet you have mixed rhinitis which is allergic rhinitis along with vasomotor rhinitis. or as the doctors call it now is nonallergic rhinitis. Weather changes, and everything else that you mentioned along with perfume smells, chemical cleaners, laundry dryer sheets, things with strong scents, diesel fumes, gasoline and the list goes on. I too have the swelling of the cheeks, undereyes, sides of nose - on the outside of the nose as well as inside.
Avatar m tn Hello, As you are stating that the eosinophilic count in your case was 12%,so I think that it can be a case of NARES(Nonallergic rhinitis with eosinophilia syndrome). A distinguishing feature of NARES is the presence of eosinophils, usually 10-20% on nasal smears. In general, patients with NARES present with nasal congestion, sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal pruritus, and hyposmia. NARES is more frequent in females at mean age. Family history is positive in part of cases.
Avatar n tn Maybe you have atrophic rhinitis from the surgeries or vasomotor rhinitis from these surgeries, could have disrupted the nerve endings inside your nose. What was the cosmetic reason for- if I may ask? Ever try going to Mayo Clinic in Rochchester Minnesota? or John Hopkins clinic ? Take care.
Avatar f tn It should be differentiated from vasomotor rhinitis and Atrophic rhinitis for which consult ENT specialist. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn Had all the tests, used all the nose sprays, nasal saline rinsing etc. etc. Ten to one what you people have is what I have and that is Vasomotor rhinitis. Change of weather, also affects this as well. There is not a surgery that will help this either. Talk to your ENT doctor about vasomotor rhinitis. I really hope though that this is NOT what you have. Go to an ENT doctor though, not just your primary doctor.
Avatar m tn Other possibility is vasomotor rhinitis which occurs due to rapid temperature changes. In 50% cases of allergic rhinitis is associated with asthma. The rhinitis can be triggered by specific allergen like pollens, dust etc. You need to go for allergy test if needed to rule out the allergen. Avoidance of exposure to allergens with nasal decongestants will be helpful.
Avatar n tn Do you have trouble breathing through your nose on either side? Ask your Ent about vasomotor rhinitis, the blood vessels inside swell up and can cause pain , pressure. One of my ENt doctors tells me to do nasal irrigation twice a day for ever, he said that it may not seem like the rinses are helping but they really are - could have fooled me- I have been doing them for 6 yrs. and it has not done a thing. Either has oral or nasal steroids. Do you have constant post nasal drainage?
Avatar n tn Yes, Allergic Rhinitis/ Hay fever in some individuals can cause swelling and redness of the nose because of the vasomotor stimulation and retention of the blood in the capillaries. When it happens depends on the factors stimulating the vasomotor reflex such as change of temperature, stress, dust, etc. 2. Is that Raynaud's as well? my hands and feet do get cold from time to time and sometimes my feet will turn a dark red or purple color when I am nervous or cold.
