Hello, I think I have chronic sinusitis - should I see a specialist or go to my GP? I have the following symptons: Post-nasal drip (back of throat). Also when I play sports my nose runs. I sometimes get hayfever type allergies but very seldom. Swelling below eye area. Left side is particularly worse. Bad Breath Fatigue I seem to have had these systems for a few years alread.
The symptoms seem to be related to a chronic sinusitis. I suggest to see an ENT specialist for further evaluation and treatment. Meanwhile, I suggest using saline nasal spray for local application. I also suggest using decongestants as per oral treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
