hi,
Welcome to health care magic,
Sinusitis can be treated with medicines like antibiotics, decongestant, antihistamines and anti inflammatory drugs for which you may
consult ENT specialist who will know about the drugs and can prescribe you.
if sinusitis does not reduce with conservative medicines ,and if sinusitis is recurring very frequently, may be 3 episodes in 6 months then we advise for surgery.
And if the sinusitis is associated with nasal polyp, nasal mass,
fungal sinusitis then also surgery is a must. Surgery for sinusitis is a
endoscopic surgery.
In this surgery mainly we clear the
sinuses and provide good ventilation for the sinuses.
It's a day care procedure, patient can go home the same day. Once the surgery is done,, there are very less chances for sinusitis to recur.
In my opinion if this is your first episode of sinusitis then you can wait and watch. If you are a chronic patient of sinusitis then I suggest you choose surgery.
Hope this information will be helpful.
