Nocon CC et al. – The etiologies of this condition include both inflammatory diseases and the effects of aging on physiology of the upper airway. Possible causes include allergic rhinitis, nonallergic rhinitis (vasomotor rhinitis and gustatory rhinitis), adverse effects of medications, hormonal changes, postnasal drip syndrome, chronic rhinosinusitis and atrophic rhinitis. Nasal symptoms in the older patient present a clinical challenge because of the physiologic effects of the aging nose, the unusual clinical presentation, the presence of multiple comorbidities and the problem of polypharmacy. A number of therapeutic options exist for this disorder, although definitive studies of effective regimens are needed.
