Allergic Rhinitis / Runny Nose Treatment in Johor Bahru

Rinitis Alergik / Hidung Berair

Allergic rhinitis is a common chronic condition in Malaysia that can cause symptoms year-round. Triggers include dust mites (extremely prevalent in humid Malaysian homes), haze from seasonal open burning, pet dander, and mould. Symptoms can be persistent and debilitating, affecting sleep, concentration, and quality of life. Proper diagnosis and treatment go beyond simply taking antihistamines.
