How Can Sinusitis Be Treated?
Hello, A short course of antibiotics preferably levoflox can be tried initially. If symptoms persists better to consult an ENT specialist and plan for surgical correction like FESS (Functional endoscopic sinus surgery). Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
