Sinusitis, commonly known as a sinus infection, occurs when the sinuses — the air-filled spaces around your nose and eyes — become inflamed or blocked. This can result from colds, allergies, or bacterial infections. Chronic sinusitis can last for months and may require specialized sinus treatment to restore normal breathing.

Allergies: Dust, pollen, and pollution trigger sinus inflammation.
Colds and Flu: Viral infections often cause temporary sinus blockage.
Deviated Septum: Structural issues in the nose can hinder drainage.
Nasal Polyps: These non-cancerous growths block sinus passages.
Facial pain or pressure
Stuffy or runny nose
Headache and fatigue
Reduced sense of smell
Postnasal drip
If you experience these for more than 10 days, consult an ENT specialist for advanced sinus treatment.
Inhale steam twice daily to ease congestion.
Use saline nasal sprays to keep passages moist.
Stay hydrated and get adequate rest.
Decongestants and antibiotics for bacterial infections.
Corticosteroid sprays to reduce inflammation.
Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) for chronic cases.
If home remedies don’t help after 7–10 days or symptoms worsen, it’s time to seek professional help. Persistent infections may require a CT scan or nasal endoscopy for proper diagnosis and advanced sinus treatment.
Sinusitis can be painful, but timely sinus treatment — from simple home care to medical interventions — can make a big difference. Stay proactive with good hygiene, allergy management, and regular ENT checkups to breathe freely again.
