Diagnosis & Treatment by ENT Specialist , Allergic Rhinitis is not a normal cold. It is the most common ENT allergy affecting 30% of people in Mumbai. If you wake up with continuous sneezing, a runny nose, nasal blockage, and itchy eyes almost daily, you have Allergic Rhinitis. At Allergy Clinic Mumbai our ENT Specialist provides complete care - from accurate allergy testing to long-term treatment, so you can stop taking daily anti-allergy medicines. When you inhale allergens like dust mites, pollen, or mold, your immune system overreacts. Your nose releases histamine, which causes swelling, sneezing, and excess mucus. This inflammation can also affect your sinuses, eyes, ears, and throat. Common Symptoms We See in ENT OPD Morning sneezing in bouts - 10 to 20 times Constant runny nose clear, watery discharge Nose block one or both sides, worse at night, Itching nose, eyes, palate, and ears, Heavy head, headache due to nose block
