Considering Sinus Surgery in Manhattan? Here’s What You Need to Know
Are chronic sinus problems making it hard to enjoy everyday life in the city? If you're constantly dealing with nasal congestion, pressure headaches, or recurring sinus infections, you’re not alone. Many Manhattan residents struggle with sinus issues that don’t respond to medication—and that’s where sinus surgery can offer lasting relief.
Whether your symptoms are due to allergies, structural blockages, or chronic inflammation, advanced sinus surgery in Manhattan can restore your breathing and improve your quality of life.

When Is Sinus Surgery the Right Choice?
Sinus problems often begin with inflammation due to allergies or infection. Over time, this can lead to blocked sinus passages, recurring infections, and even nasal polyps. When these issues don’t improve with medication or lifestyle changes, surgery may be the next step.
You may benefit from sinus surgery if you experience:
-
Frequent or chronic sinus infections
-
Facial pressure or headaches that don’t go away
-
Nasal congestion that lasts longer than 12 weeks
-
Difficulty breathing through your nose
-
Sinus issues that recur even after antibiotics or steroids
If these symptoms sound familiar, it’s time to explore your options with a sinus expert in Manhattan.

Types of Sinus Surgery We Perform in Manhattan
Depending on your diagnosis, Dr. Tadros may recommend one or more of the following sinus surgery techniques:
1. Endoscopic Sinus Surgery
This minimally invasive technique allows Dr. Tadros to remove blockages, polyps, or inflamed tissue through the nostrils—no external incisions needed. It’s ideal for patients with chronic sinusitis or nasal polyps.
2. Balloon Sinuplasty
A popular in-office procedure for mild to moderate sinus blockage. A tiny balloon is inserted into the sinus passage and inflated to gently widen the airway, offering immediate relief with minimal downtime.
3. Septoplasty
If a deviated septum is contributing to your breathing difficulties, septoplasty may be performed to correct nasal alignment and improve airflow.
4. Turbinate Reduction
Enlarged turbinates (structures inside the nose that help humidify air) can also block nasal passages. This procedure reduces their size while preserving function.
Allergy & Sinus: A Connected Issue
Many patients who need sinus surgery also struggle with environmental or seasonal allergies. Dr. Tadros takes a holistic view of your condition, offering testing and treatment for:
-
Dust mites
-
Mold
-
Pet dander
-
Pollen
-
Food sensitivities
Combining allergy care with sinus surgery ensures long-term relief and fewer recurrences.
