Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have been under treatment for chronic sinus issues and taking an antibiotic for almost two weeks. I also had a 6 day steroid pack. Now I have a cold, it seems, and I don't know if I should go to a doctor or not..I'm not sure that I need to. I also have a prescription nasal spray and an inhaler that I am using
Chronic sinus problems could be occurring due to underlying abnormalities like deviated nasal septum (DNS) or turbinate hypertrophy due to allergic reaction. You need to consult ENT specialist promptly for clinical evaluation and appropriate management of the underlying cause, which will relieve you from sinus problems.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
