Remember life before your non-stop runny nose took over?
The nose is a tiny part of your body, but it can impact your entire life in big ways when it’s irritated. A runny nose affects your health, from your breathing to energy to sleep.
There was probably a time in your life when a runny nose was a minor problem. It would come and go, and you would hardly notice the few tissues and light irritation you went through. Times have changed. A few tissues turned into boxes, and that light irritation has developed into an ongoing frustrating and draining experience.
When was the last time you took a breath without it being a sniffle? If chronic rhinitis has shown up at your door and refuses to leave, tell it goodbye without saying hello to surgery with the RhinAer™ procedure from ENT South.

When a runny nose goes from acute to chronic, it’s no longer just your problem. Chronic rhinitis impacts your family by disrupting your sleep and can complicate how others interpret your health. With worldwide health concerns, something as simple as a common cold, runny nose, or slight increase in temperature could lead to you being sent home from work, refused from entering a business, or forced to quarantine for weeks at a time.
What is chronic rhinitis, and do you have it?
Rhinitis is present when the mucous membrane in your nose is inflamed. This can cause your nose to run, itch, become congested, and result in sneezing and post-nasal drip.
