Overview

Rhinitis is a heterogeneous group of disorders that can significantly impact the quality of life of the affected individual[1] A heightened awareness of the condition and its potential debilitating comorbidities/complications is essential for a timely intervention.[1][2]

Natural History, Complications, Prognosis

Natural History

Rhinitis is a very common disease, and it is sometimes erroneously viewed as a trivial disease.[3][1] Allergic rhinitis rarely occurs in isolation, it is a product of a genetic predisposition, epigenetic events, and environmental exposures, and it is frequently associated with other forms of atopy such as eczema, asthma, and allergic eye disease(allergic rhinoconjunctivitis).[4][5][6] The vast majority of individuals with asthma have rhinitis, and allergic eye disease has been reported to affect almost all patients with allergic rhinitis.[4][7] Nonallergic rhinitis is also associated with asthma.[8][7] Frequent extension of rhinitis into the sinuses also occur, resulting in rhinosinusitis.[9][1] Children with nonallergic rhinitis have a higher likelihood of undergoing remission, compared with those with allergic rhinitis, who tend to have a more persistent disease.[8] Remission occurs in up to 73% of four year old children with nonallergic rhinitis by the age of eight years.[8] Rhinitis is a significant cause of lost school and work days, and it constitutes a huge financial burden to the society.[10][3] Untreated/poorly treated chronic rhinitis is associated with a diminished quality of life, disordered sleep, impaired work performance, and several other co-morbidities.[1][5]

Complications

The complications of rhinitis include the following:[7][3][11]

Allergic comorbidities associated with Allergic rhinitis include:[7]

  • Allergic eye diseases[4]
  1. Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis
  2. Perennial allergic conjunctivitis
  3. Vernal keratoconjunctivitis
  4. Atopic keratoconjunctivitis

Prognosis

Resolution of allergic rhinitis occurs in only 10-20% of children within 10 years.[17] A higher likelihood of remission has been documented in children with nonallergic rhinitis compared to the allergic type, with remission occurring within four years in about 73% of four year old children suffering from nonallergic rhinitis.[8] Poorly treated rhinitis is strongly associated with a decreased quality of life and several other co-morbidities.[1]
