50 % of runny , blocked and itchy noses are caused by allergy ! 2
Did you know that sneezing , and an itchy , runny or blocked nose are often caused by an allergic reaction to something in the air ? 3 In people who are not allergic , the mucus in the nasal passages simply moves foreign particles to the throat , where they are swallowed or coughed out . But in a person who is sensitive to airborne allergens , something different happens . 3 When an allergen lands in the nasal passage of someone who is sensitive to it , it triggers a chain reaction which releases chemicals such as histamine into the tissue of the nasal passage , causing it to swell , itch and produce excess mucus . This results in uncomfortable symptoms such as a blocked or runny nose , itchy nose , sneezing and watery eyes . 3
