Yes, keeping a bird still carries a significant risk of worsening her allergic rhinitis and adenoid enlargement.Even without direct physical contact, birds continuously shed microscopic dander, feather dust, and airborne proteins from their droppings and saliva into the indoor air.These tiny particles easily circulate throughout the home, settle on furniture, and can be inhaled, which frequently triggers nasal inflammation and causes adenoids to swell further.While using the momoflo nasal spray helps manage her current symptoms, introducing a constant indoor allergen source may override the medication's effectiveness.Alternative pet options that do not produce airborne dander, such as fish or certain reptiles, would be much safer for her respiratory health.

In a child with known allergic rhinitis it is better not to have pet as bird because even bird droppings can trigger allergies even by not having direct contact with bird
