Summary

Gastroesophageal(GERD) reflux disease is a very common problem among pediatric population and has be proved to contribute in numerous otolaryngological manifestations. Trails of empirical treatment of antireflux medications is often used as a diagnostic test. However, the investigators believe GERD can cause rhinitis and nasal obstruction. Nasonex is considered as first line treatment for nasal obstruction. Hence, the proposed study aims to define the relationship between GERD and rhinitis using randomize control trial where one group of patients will receive nasonex and placebo, while the other group will receive nasonex and antireflux medications.
