Chronic sinusitis requires a comprehensive approach to treatment. Rhinologist, Dr. Ron Swain, offers personalized management plans that include the latest sinus surgical and non-surgical options to help patients find lasting relief. Chronic sinusitis is a persistent inflammation of the sinuses that lasts for at least 12 weeks, despite medical treatment. It is characterized by symptoms such as nasal congestion, facial pain or pressure, nasal discharge, reduced sense of smell, and cough. The condition can be caused by several factors including recurrent infections, nasal polyps, deviated nasal septum, or allergic reactions. Chronic sinusitis can significantly affect an individual's quality of life. It is often managed with a combination of medications to reduce inflammation and treat infections, but in cases where medical therapy fails, sinus surgery may be considered to improve sinus drainage and function.
