DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.

Allergic-inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa (and the conjunctiva), which is related in time to exposure to nutritive allergens (when specific sensitization is present)

Occurrence/EpidemiologyThis section has been translated automatically.

Very rare

EtiopathogenesisThis section has been translated automatically.

Among the known (pollen) allergens of seasonal rhinitis, cross-reactions with food are often found, which cause "food allergies" when the allergens are exposed. The incidence of such cross-reactions is variable: for tree pollinists, the incidence varies between 45 and 75% depending on the research group.

Even non-pollinated food allergies can in individual cases trigger bronchial asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis or migraine attacks.

Note(s)This section has been translated automatically.

Rhinitis allergica as a monoorganic reaction to nutritive allergens is an absolute rarity. Combinations (e.g. rhinitis allergica + gastrointestinal symptoms) of different allergic organ manifestations are almost always present simultaneously (see also oral allergy syndrome).
