Abstract

Allergic rhinitis is an immunologically mediated disease initiated by an antigen and antibody reaction in hyperactive individuals. Allergic rhinitis (AR) is estimated to affect between 10 and 40% of the population [1,2]. Characterized by sneezing, rhinorrhea, nasal obstruction. In this study we observed how this persistent symptoms leads to development of major complications like nasal polyps and asthma. Study also suggest the progression of complications in different age groups of allergic rhinitis patients. Various treatment is available for AR and also there has been little improvement in patients quality of life. The selection for treatment for AR patients aims to control the symptoms.
