What could cause nasal inflammation due to allergies?

Dr. Stevan Cordas answered

Specializes in Internal Medicine

Inflammation: If you have allergies in your nose, by definition some degree of inflammation occurs due to the complex release of eosinophilic products relased as well as mast cell and neutrophil products and by products and cytokines. This is usually self perpetuating.
