ICD-10 Code for Allergic rhinitis, unspecified- J30. 9- Codify by AAPC.
Allergic rhinitis is where your nose gets irritated by something you're allergic to, such as pollen, causing sneezing and other symptoms. For most people it's easy to treat with medicines from a pharmacist.
Nonallergic rhinitis involves chronic sneezing or a congested, drippy nose with no apparent cause. Nonallergic rhinitis symptoms are similar to those of hay fever (allergic rhinitis), but with none of the usual evidence of an allergic reaction. Nonallergic rhinitis can affect children and adults.
Allergic rhinitis is the medical term for hay fever or allergies. You have an allergy when your body overreacts to things that don't cause problems for most people. These things are called allergens. Your body's overreaction to the allergens is what causes symptoms.
There are two main types of allergic rhinitis: seasonal (occurs certain times of the year) and perennial (happens all year).
Allergic rhinitis can be categorized into three basic subgroups: seasonal, perennial, and occupational. IgE mediates seasonal, perennial, and occupational responses to different allergens. Tree, grass, and weed pollens generally cause seasonal symptoms. Mold spores may cause seasonal and perennial symptoms.
In the past, allergic rhinitis was considered to be a disorder localized to the nose and nasal passages, but current evidence indicates that it may represent a component of a systemic airway disease involving the entire respiratory tract.
Allergic rhinitis, or hay fever, happens when you breathe in something to which you are allergic, and the inside of your nose becomes inflamed and swollen. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the lining inside the sinuses which can be acute or chronic.
Allergic rhinitis, also called hay fever, is an allergic reaction that causes sneezing, congestion, itchy nose and sore throat. Pollen, pet dander, mold and insects can lead to hay fever symptoms.
Allergic rhinitis is triggered by breathing in tiny particles of allergens. The most common airborne allergens that cause rhinitis are dust mites, pollen and spores, and animal skin, urine and saliva.

Infectious rhinitis, or viral rhinitis, is caused by an infection, such as the common cold or flu. The lining of the nose and throat become inflamed when a virus attacks the area. Inflammation triggers mucus production, and this causes sneezing and a runny nose.
