Sinusitis is a very common and significant healthcare problem characterized by inflammation or infection of the sino-nasal mucosal lining. Depending on the symptom duration it could be acute or chronic. So, if you are in search of a highly-skilled sinus doctor for sinusitis treatment, make sure you visit our ENT specialist. Acute sinusitis usually follows an episode of common cold and lasts for less than 4 weeks. Usually it resolves on its own or by symptomatic treatment (anti-histamines, decongestants) without any need for antibiotics. In some instances if it’s caused by secondary bacterial infection then the patient might need a short course of oral antibiotics. Chronic sinusitis usually lasts for more than 8-12 weeks and most often there are some underlying causes to it i.e. underlying allergies, anatomical sinus pathway blockage, tumor and mass etc.
