[뉴스에이 = 김인배 기자] Autumn has arrived, with clear weather and cool winds blowing. However, while enjoying the clear fall weather is short-lived, people with rhinitis are feeling their noses becoming itchy and their rhinitis getting worse.
In general, many people expect that more rhinitis patients will occur in the spring due to pollen and fine dust. However, in fall, when there is a large daily temperature difference between morning and evening, the nose’s ability to regulate air temperature and humidity declines, and our bodies are unable to adapt to rapid temperature changes, making rhinitis symptoms worse than in spring.
In fact, according to the Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service’s statistics on the number of rhinitis patients in 2022, the number of patients visiting medical institutions with vasomotor and allergic rhinitis increased more in September and October than in April and May, the spring season.
Rhinitis, which occurs when the nasal passages and paranasal sinuses become infected, causes the nasal mucosa to swell and secrete a lot of mucus, causing respiratory symptoms like a cold. Various symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing, and itching that occur repeatedly can reduce concentration and worsen the overall physical condition, leading to colds. If rhinitis symptoms persist, the nose may become clogged and snot-filled all year round, which may lead to sinusitis, conjunctivitis, otitis media, and sinusitis.
To alleviate these symptoms of rhinitis, it is important to create an environment that can reduce the temperature difference between the air entering the nose and find the cause.
First, you should maintain your immunity by exercising regularly, getting adequate sleep, and consuming more than 1.5 liters of water a day. You should also maintain thorough personal hygiene, such as keeping the humidity in the house constant to prevent dryness and making hand washing a habit. Should be. If you suffer from allergic rhinitis, it is a good idea to combine environmental therapy with drug therapy after an allergy test to find the causative allergen.
However, if breathing becomes difficult due to the enlargement of the inferior turbinate in the nose and narrowing of the breathing passage, treatment with functional rhinoplasty can be considered after determining the cause of the runny nose and nasal congestion. In addition, in the case of septal deviation, which causes the nasal septum located in the center of the nose to be bent, causing diseases such as nasal congestion, sinusitis, sinusitis, and rhinitis, the nasal septum and nasal line can be corrected through functional rhinoplasty.
Functional rhinoplasty is a procedure that creates a nose that is comfortable for breathing by solving various causes such as hypertrophic rhinitis and allergic rhinitis where the nose is blocked due to narrow nasal valves and the mucous membrane is enlarged, while also providing aesthetic benefits by preserving the nose line. In addition, functional rhinoplasty is a surgical operation performed for curative purposes under an accurate diagnosis and can be covered by actual cost insurance, so you can enjoy benefits in terms of cost as well.
Park Eon-joo, director of Banobagi Plastic Surgery, said, “Functional rhinoplasty has the great advantage of saving time and money as it can improve both functional problems and nasal lines by eliminating the cause of nose disease,” and added, “It has a high understanding of the nose and rich experience.” “Only when it is performed at a hospital equipped with the right equipment will you be able to achieve fundamental functional improvement and externally satisfactory results,” he advised.
