Qingbitang: Reasons why chronic rhinitis turns into acute rhinitis

1. Decreased immunity: Chronic rhinitis is a chronic inflammation that can reduce the body's immunity, making it susceptible to invasion by various viruses and bacteria, leading to acute attacks.

2. Long-term medication: When taking oral or nasal drops to treat chronic rhinitis for a long time, if you do not pay attention to the dosage and time of use, it may cause drug dependence and drug resistance, which will aggravate the condition and eventually lead to the occurrence of acute rhinitis.

3. Simultaneous infection by multiple pathogens: Chronic rhinitis causes damage to the nasal mucosal tissue. Once the mucus secretions covering it are contaminated by multiple pathogens, it will cause complex pathogen infection, leading to acute rhinitis.
