Thanks for your query
I have gone through your problem in detail
you have mentioned that you are diagnosed with allergic rhinitis for this you can identify the trigger which is causing. Problem for you
this allergic rhinitis is not contagious but it can be inherited from parents to children
there are also chances that it might get better for your child as the time progresses
wish you a good health
