Every sneeze, stuffy nose, and runny nose
troubles not just you—
as a parent, do you fear
your child’s future might also be shadowed by rhinitis?
Your concern may be justified...
01
Rhinitis Affects Children More Severely Than Adults
Nasal congestion, runny nose, sneezing… For children, these aren’t just nasal discomfort but a threat to fragile physical and mental health.
Congestion and mucus buildup disrupt nighttime breathing, forcing mouth breathing, snoring, or even hypoxia—severely impairing sleep quality. Chronic poor sleep leads to attention deficits, memory decline, and stunted growth.
Untreated recurrent allergic rhinitis can trigger complications like sinusitis, conjunctivitis, otitis media, and asthma, compounding the child’s burden.
Frequent nose-blowing and sneezing during play or class breed embarrassment,自卑, and dampen social confidence. Worse, prolonged discomfort may fuel anxiety or depression, harming mental health.
02
Parental Concern: Is Allergy Hereditary?
Allergies have clear genetic links. Parental allergy histories raise a child’s susceptibility.
For allergic rhinitis:
If
both parents have allergies, the child’s risk reaches
75%.
If
one parent has allergies, the risk is
50% (maternal influence > paternal).
Don’t lose hope—genetics aren’t destiny. With proactive prevention (especially
allergen identification), many children maintain healthy nasal function.
Allergic diseases stem from abnormal reactions to specific triggers. Identifying and avoiding these allergens reduces rhinitis risk.
03
Do Parents and Children Share the Same Allergens?
Daily allergens include:
Inhalants: Pollen, dust mites, mold spores, pet dander.
Foods: Milk, eggs, seafood, nuts.
Contactants: Cosmetics, perfumes, metals.
Can we assume a child’s allergens match their parents’?
Sadly, no—allergens vary even among family members. Early
allergen screening is the reliable path to prevention.
04
Renshu Allergen Testing: Skin Prick or Blood Test
Renshu ENT offers two options:
Skin Prick Test
Safe, sensitive, and fast. Minimal discomfort, results in 15 minutes. Detects reactions to dust mites, etc.
Serum-Specific IgE Testing
Measures IgE antibody levels to confirm allergen triggers. Guides immunotherapy eligibility (e.g., for dust mite allergies).
Testing empowers parents to implement targeted avoidance strategies, reducing exposure and disease risk.
Parents who’ve weathered the storm
strive harder to shield their children.
Identify allergens, lower risks,
and safeguard your child’s breath of health.
