Due to the lack of effective treatment, many patients with rhinitis suffer greatly. In addition, normal saline nasal washing mainly washes the nasal cavity, which has no direct effect on rhinitis symptoms. In fact, the stimulation of normal saline will even aggravate the condition of rhinitis.
Most patients with rhinitis are susceptible to constitution, and the core mechanism of TCM treatment is to completely transform the susceptible constitution through constitution conditioning, thus fundamentally preventing the occurrence of rhinitis, which is called "TCM constitution desensitization".
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the essence of rhinitis is the lack of healthy qi, coupled with alternating cold and warm, wind evil invading the lungs. Therefore, we must pay attention to keeping warm in our daily life and avoid eating frozen food and drinks. If you have a cough, avoid fish and seafood.
