Feedback: Children with allergic rhinitis may report full frontal headaches that become even more marked with adolescence. Pain related to sinus edema and headache would be the most appropriate diagnosis to guide care for this patient. Allergic rhinitis does not increase the risk for fluid volume deficit. Nosebleeds are not associated with allergic rhinitis. Allergic rhinitis is not severe and should not cause disturbed self-esteem. |
