Abstract
The objective of this study was to compare the outcomes of LED phototherapy and laser acupuncture treatment on allergic rhinitis in children.
40 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis were divided randomly into two groups. Patient's ages ranged from 7 to 18 years. One group was subjected to LED phototherapy and the other group was managed by laser acupuncture .The patients were followed-up for 1 year.
There was a significant improvement in the severity score symptoms in both groups through and by the end of the follow up period.
This led to the conclusion that both techniques are equally safe, reliable, non invasive and successful.
