The cause is usually viral, but bacterial infections or, more rarely, fungal infections are not ruled out. In addition, certain anatomical conditions, such as nasal septum deviation or turbinate hypertrophy, are also prone to sinusitis and inflammation.

According to some studies, about 8% of the population in Europe suffer from sinusitis, and it is estimated that this proportion will increase to 20% by 2020 due to pollution and antibiotic resistance.

The most common discomfort or pain is headache, accompanied by common symptoms of rhinitis (ie, cold), such as nasal breathing difficulties, discomfort, tearing, hyposmia, and catarrhal discharge.

The patient sees it as the weight above or below the eyes (just at the sinuses, edit), and as severe pain even when the altitude changes.

Repeated acute sinusitis attacks and frequent dyspnea are risk factors for the development of chronic sinusitis.

It is in this case that surgery is considered the ultimate treatment for this annoying condition: in the case of chronic sinus infections, that is, when the communicating door between the nasal fossa and the paranasal sinuses is closed, it is necessary to perform surgery to Drain the infection and return to normal breathing.

These operations are performed using endoscopic technology. The doctor inserts a fiber-optic endoscope into the nose and then uses microsurgery and minimally invasive instruments.

When symptoms of the common cold persist for more than 10-15 days, when painkillers cannot relieve severe headaches, or even swelling above and below the sinuses, doctors often think that there is sinusitis. Eyes and cheekbones.

If in doubt, an otolaryngologist should perform a nasal endoscopy or CT scan.

In the case of viral sinusitis, exclude antibiotics: in the case of fever, nasal decongestants, mucolytics and antipyretics are sufficient.

On the other hand, antibiotics are needed in the case of bacterial infections, which can be identified by the presence of yellowish purulent secretions.

In order to prevent mucosal inflammation, it is recommended to use inhalation therapy containing sulfur and bromine-iodine water (that is, composed of sodium chloride, iodine, and bromine).

They have anti-inflammatory, anti-catarrhal and mucolytic effects.
