Diagnostic Tests and Treatment
Your surgeon will recommend various pre-operative tests to have a clear understanding of your sinus infection. Some of the common diagnostic tests are mentioned below:
Imaging tests: Your surgeon may recommend some imaging tests, such as CT Scan, and X-ray, to see the exact root cause of swelling, inflammation, and blockage.
Allergy test: An allergy can also be a leading cause of a sinus infection. In this case, an allergy test proves helpful in determining if it is responsible for your nasal blockage.
Nasal Endoscopy: Your surgeon will use a thin, flexible endoscopic fiber tool to detect the prime suspect of sinus infection such as nasal polyps, deviated nasal septum, tumors etc.
Swab Test: In this case, the surgeon will take the nasal congestion discharge sample to determine whether it is a bacterial infection or viral.
The best treatment for sinusitis is always a combination of medication and self-care. Listed below are some medications that can provide sufficient relief at the beginning of your condition.
Antibiotics: When a bacteria-causing infection occurs, antibiotics can be taken. The antibiotics won’t work on viral infection.
Nasal Sprays: Use decongestant nasal sprays to open the blockage of sinus infections. Don’t use them frequently, excessive use of nasal sprays can reverse the effect and actually make your congestion worse.
Humidifier: Use a humidifier to keep the air moist and avoid air dryness to relieve nasal congestion.
Water Steam: Take water steam through the mouth or nose to relieve nasal swelling, pain and inflammation. It can ease congestion too.
Drink plenty of water: It can make your mucus thin and relieve congestion. Drink warm fluids like warm water, soup, green tea, honey or ginger tea, etc.
When the medications stop working and infections become chronic, then surgery is the last resort for sinusitis.
FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery): This is a minimally invasive procedure and usually takes around 1 to 3 hours to complete.

Ideally, you can return back to your work in a week or can resume your normal routine within two weeks.

YES. Homeopathy provides a long-lasting cure for acute sinusitis. The body’s immunity to sinusitis is rebuilt during treatment, however it takes time. It clears the sinuses, eradicates the infection’s source, and kills the bacteria, avoiding a recurrence.
YES. Because the nose lining becomes thinner with age, sinus issues become more likely to occur.
Here are some herbs that could give you relief from sinus inflammation, swelling, and pain:
Mullein: Known for its antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects, this herb is excellent for respiratory conditions.
Chamomile: Enhances defense mechanisms and reduces inflammation.
Comfrey – Comfrey can aid in easing pain and soreness.
Marshmallow: Marshmallow supports, calms, and moisturizes respiratory tract mucous membranes.
When the meninges, the lining of the brain, are unintentionally damaged during sinus surgery, there may be a cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leak, which could cause damage to the brain.
Many Indian health insurance provider companies cover FESS procedures under insurance. You may need second surgery when the primary surgery hasn’t provided you enough relief. In this case, the second surgery is also covered under the insurance.
