What Are the Consequences of Leaving Rhinitis Untreated for a Long Time?
Disease description:
I suffer from rhinitis myself, but I do not wish to undergo treatment. What are the potential consequences of leaving rhinitis untreated over a long period?
If left untreated for a prolonged period, rhinitis may lead to complications such as frontal sinusitis and ethmoid sinusitis. It may also spread to adjacent structures, causing prominent symptoms including dizziness and headache, and potentially impairing normal memory function. Patients should receive treatment under the guidance of a physician—using medications such as oxymetazoline hydrochloride nasal drops appropriately—and may also benefit from adjunctive therapy with antibiotics such as amoxicillin capsules, which effectively suppress inflammatory responses.
