Suggest Treatment For Dizziness And Sinus Infection
Hi. After getting up from sitting on the sofa. I became dizzy. At first I thought I may have gotten up to fast. But It did not resolve for approx 45 min.. When I change direction of my head or put my head down it gets worse.. I suffer from sinus problems but my head does not ache right now from sinus headache.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dizziness and sinus infection which means you are suffering from condition known as frontal sinusitis or ear infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take nasal decongestant sprays. You should take combination of antihistamines and antibiotic combination as infection is present. Co amoxiclav is best treatment option. You should take steam inhalation. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. Go for para nasal sinus X ray and otoscopic examination as well. you can get puncture and drainage of sinus if required. You can go for surgical reconstruction of opening after proper prescription. Do warm saline gargles.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon. Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
