Irritants
Irritants such as smoke, perfume, or chemical fumes can also cause rhinitis. Symptoms of rhinitis caused by irritants include a burning sensation in the nose, a watery discharge, and sneezing.
Environmental Factors
Environmental factors such as extreme temperatures, high humidity, and air pollution can also trigger rhinitis. Symptoms of rhinitis caused by environmental factors include a runny nose, sneezing, and nasal congestion.

Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nasal passages, and can be triggered by a number of different things. Allergens such as pollen, dust mites, mold, and animal dander are the most common causes of rhinitis. Some medications, such as beta blockers, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and aspirin can also trigger rhinitis. Exposure to cold air and certain odors, as well as hormonal changes, can also cause this condition. Treatment for rhinitis should be tailored to the individual, depending on the underlying cause. Avoiding allergens and taking prescribed medications may help reduce symptoms.
