It is an inflammation of the interior nasal lining due to inhalation of an allergen that results in a runny nose, stuffy nose, itchy eyes and sore throat (Seidman et al., 2015).

Abnormal or unexpected findings should be described. You should include only the information which was provided in the case study, do not include additional data.

A: ASSESSMENT:  (this is your diagnosis (es) with the appropriate ICD 10 code)

Do not write that a diagnosis is to be “ruled out” rather state the working definitions of each differential or primary diagnosis (es).

For each diagnoses provide a cited rationale for choosing this diagnosis. This rationale includes a one sentence cited definition of the diagnosis (es) the pathophysiology, the common signs and symptoms, the patients presenting signs and symptoms and the focused PE findings and tests results that support the dx. Include the interpretation of all lab data given in the case study and explain how those results support your chosen diagnosis. Allergic Rhinitis Soap Note Assignment
