Sinusitis is the swelling or inflammation of the sinuses—air-filled spaces in your forehead, cheeks, and around the eyes. This condition often happens when your sinuses are blocked by mucus or infection. It can cause a stuffy nose, pain in the face, headaches, and other uncomfortable symptoms. Sinusitis can be short-term or last for weeks or even months.

Many cases of sinusitis, especially those caused by viruses, can resolve on their own with rest and home care. However, if your symptoms persist or worsen, it's essential to seek medical attention. The experts at SCI Hospitals can assess your condition and determine the best course of action.
Antibiotics are only effective for bacterial sinusitis, not viral sinusitis. Your doctor at SCI Hospitals can determine if an antibiotic is necessary based on your symptoms and diagnosis. They will prescribe the most appropriate antibiotic if needed. Self-treating with antibiotics can be harmful, so always consult a doctor.
While chronic sinusitis may not be completely curable, effective management can significantly reduce the frequency and severity of symptoms.
