Suggest Treatment For Sinusitis And Ringing In Ears

I've had sinus & ear issues for last 13 months. I've been under care of ENT & Allergy specialist. ENT did CAT & MRI of head and determined no issues. The Allergy Astema specialist treated me for 6 months & cleared up sinus infections after 6 rounds of antibiotics. SYMPTONS: Numbness & tingling of scalp & neck. Swelling & pressure beneath ears. Ringing in ears. Sinus drainage with blood that dries & blocks drainage. Scalp is hot to touch but thermometer does not register fever. With changes in sinus pressure vision blurrs. These were symptoms before & after treatment & no diagnoses has been given at present. Last appointment with Allergy specialist he determined symptoms not realted to allergy's & no infection at present. Referral back to ENT Specalist this month.

Hello and welcome to health care magic,

Its very distressing to see such mindless use of antibiotics! You do not need six rounds of antibiotics to clear a sinus problem. If treated by an expert ENT specialist if you really have sinus problem then just a single round of antibiotics with a simple sinus surgery will do the job for you which will last life long!
You need to just take a simple CT PNS and get back to me or any expert ENT who is good in sinus surgery.
Hope this helps

regards
