Explanation

Allergic rhinitis is an inflammatory condition of the nasal passages caused by an immune response to allergens such as:

  • pollen
  • dust mites
  • animal dander
  • mold

Eosinophils are a type of white blood cell involved in allergic responses

And their increased presence in nasal secretions is a hallmark of allergic inflammation.
