Find/treat the cause: Chronic rhinitis is a common general term to describe allergic, non-allergic or mixed rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is most commonly due to sensitization to pollens, animal dander, or dust mite. Non-allergic rhinitis can be due to irritants (eg perfumes, smoke), infection, structural defects etc. Repeat sinus infections could be due to chronic rhinitis or the cause (if immunodeficiency exists).
