What Causes Recurrent Sinusitis?
I have reoccurring sinus issues which often Lead to dark green or brown phlegm in the morning that gags me and makes me cough so much I get a sore throat low in my throat and I get horse. It typically takes 2 hours of hacking and pulling from the back of my throat to get it all out. Then I get green periodically duuring the day and cough up more phlegm. I cant be anywhere without a Kleenex. What's going on? I'm so tired of being sick

dear user
you have recurrent tonsillitis and that indicate that you have arisk factor of becoming recurrent infected that should be investigated
you shouldnot get worry of that but should follow simple steps for management of recurrent sinusitis you have
you should do some investigations to detect the cause as blood test and nasal swab and throat swab may be needed to detect the suitable treatment of that
you need also do do blood culture and antibiotic sensitivity test to have indicative antibiotic that help improvement
multiple use of antibiotics and misuse of them and incomplete course of treatment causes resistance to antibiotic and recurrent infection
also you should avoid stress and anxiety as it may cause you recurrent sinusitis and that will help you
wish you healthy life
