Articles / Always screen asthma patients for allergic rhinitis, especially children
Dr Jessica Tattersall, Allergist and Medical Rhinologist
According to Allergist and Medical Rhinologist, Dr Jessica Tattersall, up to 80% of asthmatic children will also have allergic rhinitis.
If left untreated this can have major consequences not only for a child’s physical health but also for their intellectual and social development.
Allergic rhinitis may not always present with the classic symptoms of runny nose and sneezing.
In fact sometimes the signs can be very subtle with parents simply reporting their child appears to have sleep disordered breathing, has difficulty concentrating in class or is tired all the time.
