Popis: Allergic rhinitis, one of the common diseases in otolaryngology, has shown an increasing incidence under the influence of various geographical, cultural and economic factors, making it a common and serious global public health problem. Modern medicine uses medication as the primary therapy for allergic rhinitis, but poor symptom control and easy relapse are the disadvantages of this treatment. However, Traditional Chinese medicine, with its long history, has treated allergic rhinitis by symptomatic treatment according to pattern differentiation with its unique insights and methods, which are effective and safe in numerous clinical studies. Therefore, this paper describes TCM decoction, acupuncture, moxibustion, acupoint application, catgut-embedding therapy and ear acupuncture in the treatment of AR. This study aims to provide more personalized and precise treatment for allergic rhinitis patients by investigating the mechanism of action, clinical research and development of traditional Chinese medicine treatments.
