Abstract
Every pediatrician has likely experienced frustration with cases of chronic nasal symptoms that either do not seem to get better or do show improvement but then worsen again. Often, this leads to the diagnosis of allergic rhinitis or sinusitis and subsequent prescription of medication(s) that may or may not be warranted. This article discusses the various causes of rhinitis, both allergic and nonallergic. Recommendations for treatment place special focus on nasal irrigation and the role that a child's diet can have on chronic nasal symptoms, with the hope of reducing excessive and sometimes unnecessary medication use.
