Hello everyone! I'm looking for help understanding what the most common cause of rhinitis is. I've heard of allergies, colds, and flu viruses being possible causes, but I'm not sure which one is most common. Can anyone share their knowledge or experience with this condition? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance for your help.

Rhinitis is an inflammation of the nose and nasal passages that is often caused by allergies. The most common cause of rhinitis is an allergy to dust, pollen, animal dander, mold, or other airborne substances. Other common triggers include viral infections, such as the common cold, and exposure to irritants, such as cigarette smoke or chemicals.
