What Is Sinusitis?

Sinusitis is inflammation or infection of the sinus cavities around the nose and forehead. It may lead to blocked nose, facial pressure, headache and breathing difficulty.

Many patients confuse sinus problems with common cold or allergy. Persistent symptoms may require proper ENT evaluation.

Common Symptoms of Sinus Problems

Sinus symptoms can vary from mild nasal congestion to severe headache and breathing discomfort. Some patients experience repeated cold-like symptoms throughout the year.

When Should You Consult ENT Specialist?

You should consult an ENT specialist if symptoms continue for more than 10 days, keep returning frequently or interfere with sleep and daily activities.

Early diagnosis can help identify whether symptoms are caused by sinus infection, allergy, deviated septum, nasal polyps or chronic inflammation.

Causes of Sinus Headache

Sinus headache is commonly associated with inflammation and blockage of sinus drainage pathways. Pressure may build around the forehead, cheeks and eyes causing heaviness and discomfort.

Environmental pollution, allergy, dust exposure and untreated nasal blockage can worsen symptoms.
