Hello and thank you for asking on Healthcaremagic.com.
1. This indicates infection and/or inflammation in the openings/cavities inside your face bones, I.e. sinusitis.
2. Indicates that you have already had a surgical opening of the two of these sinuses (openings) in an attempt to relieve them and subsequently clear the infection and inflammation.

I hope this answers your question. Let me know if you have any further questions.
