The specialist also says that the nasal mucosa has many blood capillaries, which heat the air entering the body. “This makes this region very reactive and generates an inflammatory process in response to any aggressive external agent. This explains the stuffy and irritated nose of people with allergies. Therefore, when diseases are of allergic origin such as asthma, rhinitis and sinusitis, nasal congestion is a very common symptom,” he explains.
“It’s very common for people to have a stuffy, runny nose when they have a cold. That’s because inflammation stimulates the production of mucus and excess fluid as a form of protection,” concludes Dr. Dolci.
