FAQs about Sinus
2. What are the symptoms of sinusitis?
Symptoms for patients in NJ may include sinus headache, facial pain, nasal drainage, nasal stuffiness, and facial pressure. Occasionally this may be accompanied by fever, sore throat or cough. When the eyes fail to drain into the nose, excessive tearing may occur. When the middle ears fail to drain into the nose, ear pressure and pain can occur.
3. Who is at risk for chronic sinusitis and how does the disease progress?
Recurrent sinus infections should be investigated to prevent overgrowth (hyperplasia) of the sinus lining or polyps that may permanently obstruct sinus drainage. Rarely, complications of a sinus infection include bacterial meningitis, brain abscess, orbital cellulitis, and invasive fungal disease.
