Manage episode 399930910 series 1994342
Nasal allergies, also known as rhinitis, affect an astonishing number of people globally, with approximately 100 million individuals grappling with nasal inflammation and related symptoms.
In a recent interview with Shani Bocian, co-founder of AllerMi, a telemedicine company specializing in allergy care, she shed light on the intricacies of nasal allergies, their causes, and an innovative approach to managing them effectively.
The Rise of Nasal Allergies
Contrary to the common perception of allergies as seasonal nuisances, Shani Bocian emphasizes that, for most sufferers, nasal allergy symptoms persist chronically throughout the year.
The increasing intensity of pollen counts, attributed to climate change and rising temperatures, plays a pivotal role in exacerbating nasal allergy symptoms.
Additionally, pollutants in the air contribute to higher and stickier pollen concentrations, making nasal allergies a year-round challenge for millions.
Challenges in Current Treatment Approaches
Shani Bocian highlights the limitations of prevalent treatments, such as oral antihistamine pills, in providing effective relief for nasal inflammation. While these medications address some symptoms, their systemic nature poses challenges in targeting the specific area of nasal inflammation. The need for more direct, localized treatments led to the development of innovative solutions like AllerMi.
