Abstract
Allergic Rhinitis is an inflammatory disorder of the nasal mucosa induced by allergen exposure triggering IgE mediated inflammation. Clinically, it is characterized by four major symptoms-rhinorrhea, sneezing, nasal itching, and nasal congestion. Around twenty to thirty percent of the Indian population suffers from allergic rhinitis and fifteen percent develops asthma. In study on children with allergic rhinitis nasal symptoms and rhinoconjouctivitis were present and there was consistent rise in its prevalence. Proportion of blockers is high compared to sneeze runners. Nasal obstruction was the most common symptom and blockers had significantly more sensitization to polyvalent house dust, house dust mites and fungi, whereas sneeze runners had more sensitization to pollens Jal Neti play an important role in the drainage of the collection present in the maxillary sinus. Lukewarm water leads to vasodilation, Increased phagocytosis and Nacl helps in the conversion of thick secretion into thin secretion. It is all about nasal hygiene just like brushing teeth is about dental hygiene. The aim of JAL NETI is to purify and clean the nasal path right from the nostril to the throat using water.
