SYMPTOMS OF STUFFY BLOCKED CONGESTED NOSE:
Non-allergic rhinitis is inflammation of the inside of the nose that is not caused by an allergy. Rhinitis that is caused by something that triggers an allergy, such as pollen, is a separate health condition known as allergic rhinitis.

Symptoms of non-allergic rhinitis can include:
a blocked nose
a runny nose
sneezing – although this is generally less severe than in allergic rhinitis
mild irritation or discomfort in and around your nose
reduced sense of smell - More information on reduced sense of smell at https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/lost-or-changed-sense-smell/

In rare cases, non-allergic rhinitis can also cause a crust to develop inside the nose, which may:
produce a foul-smelling odour
cause bleeding if you try to remove it

See your GP if you have symptoms of non-allergic rhinitis and they're affecting your quality of life.

Non-allergic rhinitis can be difficult to diagnose, as there is no test to confirm it. Your GP will first ask about your symptoms and medical history.

They may then carry out a blood test to check if you have an allergy, or they may refer you to a hospital clinic for more specific tests for allergies, including a "skin prick test".

If the test results suggest you do not have an allergy, you may be diagnosed with non-allergic rhinitis.

CAUSES OF STUFFY BLOCKED CONGESTED NOSE:
In non-allergic rhinitis, the inflammation is usually the result of swollen blood vessels and a build-up of fluid in the tissues of the nose.

This swelling blocks the nasal passages and stimulates the mucus glands in the nose, resulting in the typical symptoms of a blocked or runny nose.

There are several possible causes of non-allergic rhinitis including:
viral infections, such as a cold – these attack the lining of the nose and throat
environmental factors – such as extreme temperatures, humidity or exposure to noxious fumes, such as smoke
hormone imbalances – such as during pregnancy or puberty
hormone-containing medicines such as HRT or the contraceptive pill
