hi sir/madam,
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.

As per Ayurveda, Allergic rhinitis is compared with Vata- Kaphaja pratishaya. The concept of Ama, Asatmya and virudh aahara also predict the allergic conditions.

Ama is the product of impaired digestion and metabolism. It affects Rasa and Rakta Dhatu leading to manifestation of Pratishyaya. Wrong food combinations (Virudh aahar) having antagonist properties like fish with milk, fruit juice with milk, clarified butter with honey, ice cream after night meals, etc. leads to allergy.

Ayurvedic line of treatment:-

If the symptoms are severe and in chronic conditions, Vamana Panchakarma treatment, followed by Virechana is administered. This helps to relieve Ama and balance Tridosha.
In some cases, where the patient has normal digestion strength, Nasya treatment (nasal drops therapy) is administered with herbal oils such as Anu taila or Shadbindu Taila.
After the above Panchakarma treatments, Ayurvedic medicines are administered to improve respiratory immunity and strength of upper respiratory tract.
The medicines given for allergic rhinitis are:-

1. Nimbarajanyadi tablet – Contains neem and turmeric as main ingredients.1-0-1 after food.
2. Chavikasavam – Fermented Ayurvedic liquid, also used in urinary tract disorders.10 to 15ml with water
3. Mahalaxmi Vilas Ras – Also useful in the treatment of skin diseases, diabetes, Sinus, non healing wounds, etc.1-0-1 after food.

1. Take Light food, lukewarm water, Kapha nashaka foods like little spicy food, saindhav salt, legumes, soups etc.
2. Avoid heavy food, fermented food, congestive food, too hot or too cold food, soar food, non vegetarian food, sweets, banana, curd, yogurt, ice creams, deserts, cakes, yellow grams, etc.
3. Avoid Alcohol and cold beverages.

Lifestyle improvement:-
Use mask while driving vehicle or going through public places.
Always take warm water bath.

Regularly take inhalation of steam.
Regularly go for morning walk in warm weather.
Do sufficient exercise.
