Allergy & hypersensitivity, Rhinitis
Allergic rhinitis is a common chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa affecting 10-20% of the population. It is caused by an IgE-mediated response to airborne allergens like dust mites, pollen, and animal dander. Symptoms include rhinorrhea, nasal congestion, sneezing, and itching. Allergic rhinitis is classified based on symptom duration and severity. Treatment involves avoidance of triggers, oral antihistamines, intranasal corticosteroids, and immunotherapy to relieve symptoms and inflammation. Allergic rhinitis and asthma often co-exist as part of a combined airway inflammatory disease.
7 Upper respiratory tract infections
Upper respiratory tract infections are very common and include conditions like sinusitis, ear infections, epiglottitis, and sore throat. While most are mild and viral, inappropriate antibiotic use has led to increased antibiotic resistance. Acute bacterial rhinosinusitis is usually treated with amoxicillin/clavulanic acid for 5-7 days. Chronic rhinosinusitis requires long-term treatment including nasal steroids, saline irrigation, and sometimes antibiotics or surgery. Group A streptococcal pharyngitis is the only commonly occurring sore throat for which antibiotics are indicated to prevent complications like rheumatic fever. A rapid strep test aids early diagnosis and penicillin remains the treatment of choice.

Septal perforation repair can be challenging, especially for larger perforations without cartilage support. The document reviews techniques for endoscopically repairing septal perforations using flaps based on the size, location, available cartilage, and other patient factors. Completely closing the perforation without tightness and preserving blood flow are the most important factors for avoiding recurrence, and changing the flap if needed can help ensure a successful repair and prevent failure.
Spontaneous csf leakage myth of stoppage
This document discusses spontaneous cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leaks. It notes that CSF leaks can be traumatic due to accidents or iatrogenic, or non-traumatic due to high pressure from tumors or hydrocephalus. Traumatic leaks have a higher incidence and risk of infection compared to non-traumatic leaks. Diagnosis involves identifying clear fluid with a salty taste from the nose that tests positive for CSF biomarkers. Imaging like CT and MRI are used to locate the leak site. The document warns that repairing a CSF leak in idiopathic intracranial hypertension patients can cause the hypertension symptoms to return, so continued monitoring is important after repair. Strict follow-up is needed even after meningitis-

Immunotherapy 2 copy
This document summarizes the benefits of sublingual immunotherapy drops for treating allergies. It explains that unlike medications, immunotherapy addresses the underlying cause by gradually desensitizing the body to allergens. Sublingual drops are as effective as shots but safer and more convenient to take at home under the tongue. Symptom relief can be seen within weeks, and drops are also suitable for children over age five. Immunotherapy drops provide lasting allergy relief and protection worldwide.
Rush immunotherapy rhinology conference
Rush immunotherapy provides accelerated allergen immunotherapy by administering shots in quick succession to reach the maintenance dose more quickly than standard immunotherapy schedules. It may be appropriate for patients with life-threatening insect venom allergies, those who live far from treatment centers, or who have busy schedules. Advantages include inducing long-lasting immunological tolerance and preventing the development or progression of allergic diseases. Additional research is still needed to determine optimal dosing strategies and durations of treatment for both subcutaneous and sublingual immunotherapy.
