Condition: Sinusitis

A sinus is a hollow space in the body. There are many types of sinuses, but sinusitis affects the paranasal sinuses, the spaces behind the face that lead to the nasal cavity. The lining of these sinuses has the same composition as the lining of the nose. The sinuses produce a slimy secretion called mucus. This mucus keeps the nasal passages moist and traps dirt particles and germs.
Sinusitis occurs when mucus builds up, and the sinuses become irritated and inflamed.

There are different types of sinusitis, and they can last for various lengths of time.

Acute sinusitis is temporary and can happen when a person has a cold or a seasonal allergy. Symptoms usually go away within 7-10 days but can last up to 4 weeks.

Chronic sinusitis is when symptoms last more than 12 weeks or return three times within a year. Over 50% of people with moderate-to-severe asthma also have chronic sinusitis.

Symptoms
  • Nasal discharge, which may be green or yellow
  • A postnasal drip, where mucus runs down the back of the throat
  • Facial pain or pressure
  • Blocked or runny nose
  • Sore throat
  • Cough
  • Bad breath
  • Fever
  • Headaches
  • A reduced sense of smell and taste
  • Tenderness and swelling around the eyes, nose, cheeks, and forehead
  • Toothache

 

Root Causes
  • Having a previous respiratory tract infection, such as a cold
  • Nasal polyps, which are small benign growths in the nasal passage that can lead to obstruction and inflammation
  • Seasonal allergies
  • Sensitivity to substances such as dust, pollen, mold and animal dander
  • Having a weakened immune system due to medication or a health condition
  • Having a deviated septum (the septum is the bone and cartilage that divides the nose into two nostrils) When this becomes bent to one side, either through injury or growth, it can increase the risk of sinusitis.
  • Dental toxicity Issues
