It is a common concern that sinusitis may recur after FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery), and while some patients may experience a return of symptoms, many find significant long-term relief.
Recurrence can depend on factors like allergies, nasal polyps, or post-operative care. Following your doctor’s advice on aftercare and regular follow-ups can greatly reduce the chances of recurrence.
It is best to discuss your specific concerns with your ENT specialist before making a decision.
Sinus surgery creates the pathway.
Long-term control keeps it open.
If you want the best chance of keeping rhinosinusitis from coming back, focus on:
rinses,
anti-inflammatory nasal treatment,
allergy/asthma control,
trigger avoidance,
and regular follow-up.
