Symptoms & Signs

Runny nose
Nasal congestion (stuffy nose)

Diagnosis & Tests

The doctor will ask you about your symptoms, when they occur, and what seems to trigger them.

You will also be asked about your home and work environment. The doctor may look inside your nose and see that the tissues lining the nose are swollen due to inflamed blood vessels.

Allergy skin tests may be done to rule out allergies as a cause of your symptoms.

Blood tests to determine your total serum IgE and total circulating eosinophil count may be ordered.
