Intervention: Paediatric Rhinoconjunctivitis Quality of Life Questionnaire (PRQLQ)
Description: PRQLQ, is a self-administered, disease-specific questionnaire, evaluating physical, emotional, and social status of individuals with AR. It contains 23 items in 5 domains: nose symptoms (RS), eye symptoms (ES), practical problems (PF), activity limitation (RL) and other symptoms (OS). One score is given to each domain. 7-point scale (from 0, not problematic; to 6, very problematic). The overall score is derived from the average score of all items (20). In our study, the Turkish validated form of PRQLQ was used~Patients will be asked to answer PRQLQ questions at the end of each week during treatment. At the end of the treatment, an average of 4 weeks will be taken as the PRQLQ score. Basal PRQLQ questions will be evaluated by the participants based on 4 weeks prior to treatment.

Intervention: Nasal cytology
Description: In anterior rhinoscopy, nasal cytology will be scraped off the middle part of the lower turbinate with the help of a small sterile cotton swab. The cellular material obtained will be fixed by air drying on a glass slide and then stained by the May-Grünwald-Giemsa method. Preparations that do not contain respiratory epithelium or contain less than 10 epithelium at high magnification will be excluded from the study. A percentage of cells per 100 cells will be reported. NECs (nasal eosinophilic count) will be evaluated according to the quantitative classification of Gelardi et al. An experienced cytologist who is blind to the study groups will perform this test. Eosinophil percentages in nasal smears of all patients will be evaluated before and after the treatment.

Intervention: anterior rhinomanometry
Description: Children's right, left and total nasal airway resistance (NAR) and nasal airflow (NAF) will be measured with active anterior rhinomanometry ZAN 100 USB Rhinomanometry (Longmont, Colo., USA). In the evaluation, the NAR- pressure difference / air flow (R = P / V) formula will be used at a constant 150 Pascal prescribed by the European Rinomanometry Standardization Committee in 1984. After the patient is rested for 20 minutes, measurements will be made at 20-22 ° C and the nasal secretion will be cleared. NAR and NAF values of the participants will be measured before starting treatment and 4 weeks after treatment.
