WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT CATARRH

Catarrh is a build-up of mucus in an airway or cavity of the body.

It usually affects the back of the nose, the throat or the sinuses (air-filled cavities in the bones of the face).

It's often temporary, but some people experience it for months or years. This is known as chronic catarrh.

Catarrh can be a nuisance and may be difficult to get rid of, but it's not harmful and there are treatments available.

WHAT CAUSES CATARRH?
Catarrh is caused by the immune system reacting to an infection or irritation, which causes the lining of your 👃 and throat to become swollen and produce mucus.

This can be triggered by:
•Cold
•Infection
•Fever
•Other types of allergic rhinitis
• Non -allergic rhinitis
•Nasal polyps.

SYMPTOMS ASSOCIATED WITH CATARRH

Catarrh can lead to a:

•Constant need to clear your throat.

•Feeling that your throat is blocked.

•Blocked or stuffy nose that you cannot clear.

•Runny nose.

• Fatigue

•Feeling of mucus running down the back of your throat.

•Persistent cough.

•Headache or facial pain.

•Reduce sense of smell and taste.

•Crackling sensation in your ear.

•Temporary hearing loss.

TREATMENT FOR CATARRH.

Catarrh will often pass in a few days or weeks as the condition that causes it improves.

There are things you can try at home to relieve your symptoms, such as:

•Avoiding things that trigger your symptoms, such as allergens or smoky places.

•Taking sips of cold water when you feel the need to clear your throat – constantly clearing your throat may make things worse.

•Using a saline nasal rinse several times a day – these can be bought from a pharmacy or made at home with half a teaspoon of salt in a pint of boiled water that's been left to cool
avoiding warm, dry atmospheres, such as places with air conditioning and car heating systems – placing plants or bowls of water in a room may help to keep the air humid.

WHEN TO SEE A DOCTOR .

Speak to a doctor if your catarrh persists and is becoming difficult to live with.

They may want to rule out conditions that could be causing it, such as nasal polyps or allergies.

This may mean you need to be referred to a specialist for tests.

If you're diagnosed with a specific underlying condition, treating it may help relieve your catarrh.

Your Health is Priority.
