Abstract:
The almost all guidelines of allergic rhinitis (AR) diagnosis and treatment in the world agree the strategy of "combination of prevention and treatment, four in one". There are more descriptions about anti-allergic medications and allergen immunotherapy (AIT), but less contents of environmental control and health education. It is necessary to emphasize again that clinicians must attach great importance to environmental control and strengthen health education in order to realize the three-level prevention of AR and reduce its harm.
