Running nose discharge may be related to factors such as colds, allergic diseases, and rhinitis. In this case, the nasal discharge is like water, and some people may also experience symptoms such as sneezing and nasal congestion. Therefore, further treatment needs to be carried out based on the specific reasons, such as using medication to control the symptoms of running nose discharge. It is also important to keep warm and rest adequately, which is conducive to the recovery of the body.
1. Allergic Diseases: Be vigilant when experiencing running nose discharge caused by allergic diseases, which are especially common during seasonal changes and in spring and autumn. In these seasons, patients often experience running nose discharge, especially in the morning, accompanied by sneezing and clear nasal discharge, resembling water, which is usually a manifestation of allergic rhinitis.
2. Cold: Running nose discharge may also be a symptom of upper respiratory tract catarrh caused by colds. In addition, there may be nasal congestion or sore throat. Another distinguishing feature from allergic rhinitis is the presence of systemic symptoms, such as general fatigue, lethargy, or fever in some patients. It is relatively easy to distinguish between the two, and treatment with traditional Chinese or Western medicine cold medications is required.
3. Rhinitis: Running nose discharge should also be carefully considered in relation to acute rhinitis or acute sinusitis. This is caused by abnormal secretions due to acute infection by viruses or bacteria when the body's immune system is weakened. Patients may also experience symptoms such as fever, nasal congestion, facial pain, and headache when the condition occurs. A detailed examination of blood routine, electronic nasal endoscopy, and sinus CT can confirm the diagnosis.
