A member asked:
When someone is complaining of rhinitis symptoms.if turbinates are red, does this color rule out allergic rhinitis and indicate non allergic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely, yes: In allergic rhinitis, mucosa is pale and in infections, is red. That is a generalization and like all generalization can be wrong.
