Sinus Infection- Symptoms And Treatment

Sinus is termed rhinosinusitis in medical language. It is an infection which occurs when the nasal cavities and accessory para nasal sinuses get infected; it becomes swollen and inflamed. Mostly it is caused by a virus. But in some cases, it is caused by bacteria or a rare fungus.

There are two types of Sinus infections

• The Chronic- Whereas the chronic infection lasts for more than twelve weeks, it causes a nasal blockage, pus in the nasal cavity, fever, runny nose, and a feeling of congestion.
• The Acute- It only lasts for a short period. It is part of a cold or any other respiratory illness. It causes facial pain, runny nose, loss of smell and cough. It may cause fever, bad breath, weakness, or a toothache at the same time.

In the expert’s opinion, many symptoms are common in both forms but can be cured with homeopathic medicines for sinus.

The major symptoms

• Pain, sneezing and runny nose are the most common symptoms. There are several sinuses present in your face, below and above the eyes, and behind the nose.
• Inflammation and swelling cause pain in the forehead, and discomfort on either side of the nose, in the teeth or between the eyes.
• Nasal Discharge with a green or yellow color. This discharge may bypass your nose and drain down the back of your throat causing a tickle, an itch or even a sore throat.
• Nasal Congestion- Due to the infection there is swelling, and it blocks the nasal passage. This congestion doesn’t allow you to smell, or taste, and it affects your voice too.

How to treat the infection?

• In the case of acute infection, the doctor recommends decongestant and saline nasal washes. It takes 10-12 days, and the symptoms disappear with the procedure. However, it doesn’t help to stop the recurrence. In chronic cases, the symptoms tend to reappear for which homoeopathy is the best solution.
