"Hi everyone,

I'm trying to figure out what an ENT can do for chronic rhinitis. I've been dealing with this condition for a while and have tried different treatments, but nothing seems to help. Does anyone have any experience with this or know what an ENT can do to help? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
