This trial tests a treatment called washed microbiota transplantation, which transfers gut bacteria from healthy donors to people with allergic rhinitis. The goal is to see if changing the gut bacteria can reduce allergy symptoms like sneezing, itching, and a runny or blocked nose.
This study uses a nasal allergen provocation test to help diagnose chronic rhinitis more accurately. If you have allergic rhinitis or are a healthy volunteer, you may help researchers learn how well this test works.
This trial is testing whether a special type of water with extra hydrogen (called hydrogen ion water) can help relieve symptoms of allergic rhinitis, like sneezing and a runny or stuffy nose. If you have these symptoms and they bother you a lot, this study might be a way to try a new natural approach.
This trial tests whether acupuncture at a specific spot behind the nose can reduce symptoms from seasonal allergies (triggered by things like grass or birch pollen). It may help if your allergy symptoms are moderate to severe and have lasted for a long time.
This study tests whether a specific type of acupuncture can reduce allergy symptoms like sneezing, runny nose, and nasal congestion. It may offer an alternative for people whose symptoms are not well controlled by standard treatments.
This study tests a surgical procedure that cuts small nerves in the nose to relieve long-lasting, non-allergic nasal symptoms like stuffiness, runny nose, and sneezing. It may be an option for people with idiopathic rhinitis whose symptoms have not improved with other treatments.
