Local allergic rhinitis, also known as the phenomenon of "exclusively local IgE production", is characterized by chronic "idiopathic" rhinitis in which the serological allergy tests, as well as prick and intradermal tests, are negative. Positive reactions to nasal provocation can be detected as an indication of local IgE production.
