Rhinoconjunctivitis
Rhinoconjunctivitis is a type of allergy that affects the respiratory and ocular mucosa. It is a dual sensitivity to allergens in the airways and the eyes, causing both rhinitis (inflammation of the nasal passages) and conjunctivitis (inflammation of the membranes of the eyes).

Rhinoderma
Rhinoderma is a genus of of simple-minded, worm-like, burrowing frogs that are endemic to Chile. They are characterized by their worm-like bodies and the presence of finger-like projections on their snouts, which are lined with taste buds, and are used for detecting and capturing prey. Rhinoderma begin their lives as eggs that hatch out into aquatic young, gilled and blind. They undergo metamorphosis and develop lungs and lose their tails but retain some resemblance to salamanders, a trait which has led them to be classified together with the salamanders as urodelans, though they are in fact metamorphic frogs, related to the other frogs.
Rhinogenic
Rhinogenic refers to something that causes nasal irritation or inflammation, leading to the development of rhinitis, a runny nose or congestion. It can also refer to anything that provokes a strong emotional response or antagonism, especially in regards to social media or online platforms.
