Clarifix® for Chronic Runny Nose

Chronic rhinitis is frequent inflammation of the nose with symptoms such as a runny nose, nasal congestion and post-nasal drip (mucus in the throat).


What Causes Chronic Rhinitis (Runny Nose)?

While the exact causes are unknown, out-of-balance nasal nerves play a contributing factor. The nerves in your nose transmit signals to your brain regulating all sorts of functions. When these nerves become hyperactive or out of balance, they send more signals than are necessary for the nose to perform its normal jobs, such as protecting the body from infectious agents.

This can cause your nose to respond like it’s fighting an illness. The nasal linings will become inflamed (congestion) and mucus production will increase (runny nose), causing these annoying symptoms – even when you aren’t sick.


Attributes of a Normal Nasal Cavity

  • Nasal nerves help regulate the nasal activity
  • Turbinates warm and moisturize air as it flows through the nose
  • Normal mucus production helps protect against infectious agents

Attributes of a Nasal Cavity with Chronic Rhinitis

  • Nasal nerves send too many signals
  • Inflamed turbinates contribute to congestion and stuffy nose
  • Excessive mucus can drip down the throat and cause runny nose
