I recently made a detailed link to "Atrofik Rhinitis - definition, treatment, indication, causes" >> Atrofik Rinit ve Young Cerrahisi

This disease usually arises due to reasons such as nose treatment, nasal surgery (nasal septum perforation that may cause excessive reduction of nasal mucous membranes, ingestion or an abnormal increase in airflow rate in the nose) or drug use, which can lead to deterioration of the heating mechanisms. Moistening the nose, narrowing the excess air are used for Atrophic Rhinitis treatment . So if you close your nostrils regularly, you can expect a reduction in the severity of the disease (without laser :) )!

You can find "laser devices" of different sizes and specifications, produced for the treatment of different diseases on the Internet. Perhaps you can  find most of the lasers produced for such interesting disease treatments in China.

 It is not easy to discuss the effects and benefits of these products, which you may also find at the famous shopping site www.aliexpress.com. It is reported that the laser device sold for atrophic rhinitis treatment can also be used in middle ear inflammation, ear ringing, allergic rhinitis treatment. There is also Rhinolight, an endonasal phototherapy device that is a similar product used in the treatment of allergic rhinitis.

In atrophic rhinitis, progressive damage to nasal secretions, scent cells, mucosal epithelium occurs. It is not as innocent and harmless as the process of allergic rhinitis.

Can be beneficial by ensuring that the intranasal mucosa is also temporarily prevented from contact with air, even if the laser on the side of the probe is only held for several hours in the nostrils of the nose.

Sales slogans as "chronic rhinitis and atrophic rhinitis Green 650nm Laser Treatment Instrument CE approved for all types of rhinitis ..." is sold as a slogan. As regards product use, also:
  "- 30 minutes some people will feel effective treatment
- After 2 weeks, he can repair it and improve it by 30%
- After 3-6 months, 80% rhinitis will repair or heal. "On one product page, pre-and post-nasal pictures were shared, not malignant melanoma but atrophic rhinitis.
  There are many scientific papers on allergic rhinitis and laser treatment. However, there are not many sources related to atrophic rhinitis treatment and lasers. A few publications were made mostly from Russia and one of them >>  "The application of helium-neon laser radiation for the combined treatment of the patients with atrophic rhinitis

It has been emphasized that Helium-neon laser can be used in the treatment of atrophic rhinitis and that low-energy lasers can be used in the treatment of atrophic rhinitis in a scientific article named "Low-energy laser radiation in the combined therapy of ozena patients"

I did not find an approved laser device for atrophic rhinitis treatment on the FDA's website (http://www.fda.gov/). The subject is controversial. Believe what your doctor who treated you in the treatment said.

Atrophic Rhinitis - Definition, Symptoms, Diagnosis, Treatment

 

The Fetid Rhinitis or Atrophic Ozena

Atrophic rhinitis is the inflammation of the nasal mucosa and the dryness of the nasal mucosa. Mild or severe, depending on the amount indicated, may be acute or chronic, depending on the duration. Viruses, bacteria and allergens can be found in various findings of atrophic rhinitis. In addition to a viral rhinitis usually a bacterial infection is caused by other bacteria such as streptococcus, staphylococcus and pneumococcus. Many factors can facilitate the appearance of atrophic rhinitis (such as bacterial infection, allergens, excessive dryness, exposure to nausea and cold, excessive respiration of the powder, and damage to the nasal mucosa due to viral infection). It is usually insignificant, but some forms can be contagious.

Atrophic rhinitis, whose definition has been made in the last century but whose etiopathogenesis is not yet certain despite the intervening 100 years, is a lifelong chronic disease with extremely disturbing symptoms although it is not fatal. The incidence of atrophic rhinitis has been reported as 2%.

Atrophic rhinitis causes


• Hereditary factors: The disease is in family members
• Hormonal imbalance: The disease starts in adolescence and is usually seen in women
• Racial factors: Whiteness is more sensitive than that of equator Africa.
• Food deficiency: vitamins A or D or iron
• Infection: Klebsiella ozaenae, diphtheroids, Proteus vulgaris, E. coli, etc.
• Autoimmune factors: Viral infection or another unidentified triggering factor may affect the antigenic properties of the nasal mucosa
• During nasal surgery, chronic atrophic rhinitis may occur after excessive nasal mucosal injury or tissue defects that affect nasal function (complete removal of nasal feces, empty nasal syndrome), perforation of the nasal septum, and intranasal airflow changes.

Ozena is a term often used in place of atrophic rhinitis or empty nose syndrome. It describes a chronic progressive nasal disease that results in atrophy in the nasal mucosa, scabbing in the nose, foul-smelling discharge, and destruction in submucosal structures. Klebsiella ozaenae is a gram-negative Bacillus. This Bacillus, the cause of atrophic rhinitis, has been described as colonizing the mucosa of the Ora and nasopharynx. It can also be isolated from runny nose, Crouts, and tissue biopsy cultures. Several theories have been put forward to explain pathogenesis. None of this has been confirmed, however. Virulent bacterial infection causing ciliated epithelial damage in the nasal mucosa is recognized as the first trigger for primary atrophic rhinitis. This initiates the chain of events leading to secondary pyogenic osteomyelitis ilemucosa and inflammation in the submucosa in the Conchal bone. Intractable purulent secretion is believed to contribute greatly to the clinical picture by causing saprophytic Klebsiella colonization in an impaired nasal mucociliary clearing environment.

Clinical findings of atrophic rhinitis


• This disease is more common in women and in patients with low socioeconomic group.
• Nasal cavities can be red, dry, dry. Black or dark green and dry, out of the nasal cavity may produce painful and difficult, odorless shells.
• It is known that microorganisms multiply and produce bad odor from the nose, but patients may not be aware of it because odor nerve endings and odor elements (responsible for odor detection) are atrophic. This is called "merciful anosmia" (one is unaware of the bad smell in his own nose and can not smell)
• Patients complain of nasal obstruction despite the large nasal cavity, which can be a result of obstruction caused by the discharge in the nasal cavity or the sensory loss due to atrophy of the nerves in the nerve, so the patient is unaware of it. In this case, the sensation of nasal congestion is subjective
• Nose bleeding may occur. When the dried shells are removed in the nose, a nosebleed may appear
• Damage to the nasal vestibule, septum perforation and skin inflammation may occur. Nasal deformities may occur
• Atrophic rhinitis, pharynx, or larynx is also associated with similar atrophic changes, and symptoms related to these structures may occur. Hearing impairment due to occlusion of the anterior tube causing middle ear effusion may occur
• After atrophic rhinitis treatment, odor reduction and taste deterioration may persist permanently


Atrophic rhinitis treatment


Atrophic rhinitis, a chronic rhinitis, is a rare idiopathic disease associated with foul-smelling runny nose, nasal congestion and scabbing. Therefore, it affects the quality of life quite. There is no standard treatment protocol.

Atrophic rhinitis medical treatment


The following drugs and applications are used in medical treatment:
• Intra-nasal washing with salt water
• Nasal irrigation and removal of shells using alkaline nasal solutions
• 25% glycose in glycerin can be applied to prevent the growth of proteolytic organisms that produce sweet smell to the nasal mucosa
• Topical antibiotics, such as chloromycetin
• Vitamin D2 (calciferol)
• For regeneration of the seromucinous glands and vascularization of the mucosa, use estradiol spreyi
• Systemic streptomycin against Klebsiella organisms
• oral potassium iodide for liquefaction of the secretions
• Placenta extract injected into the submucosa

Atrophic rhinitis surgical treatment:

Surgical treatments are planned if these medical treatments are not enough and the symptoms of the disease are exacerbated.

Surgical treatment and applications include:

• Young Surgery
• Modified Young Operation
• Nasal cavity narrowing, submucosal injection of Teflon paste, lateral wall of the nose and medial displacement
• Transposition of the parotid duct to maxillary sinus or nasal mucosa
