Sinusitis Pain and Major Symptoms of Sinus Infection
#1
Star 
[size=4][b]Sinusitis Pain - Major Symptoms of Sinus Infection[/b][/size][hr]You're coughing and sneezing and tired and achy. You think that you might be getting a cold. Later, when the medicines you've been taking to relieve the symptoms of the common cold are not working and you've now got a terrible headache, you finally drag yourself to the doctor. After listening to your history of symptoms, examining your face and forehead, and perhaps doing a sinus X-ray, the doctor says you have sinusitis.

[list][*]Bad breath.[*]Think about it this way-your senses of smell and taste are really messed up right now-and you can still smell and taste your bad breath.[*]What does everybody else think about your breath right now?[*]Aiming high is our motto when writing about any topic.[*]In this way, we tend to add whatever matter there is about Maxillary Sinus, rather than drop any topic.[/list]

Some additional signs that the doctor will check for in order to diagnose sinusitis are swollen areas around the eyes, nasal passages that have become reddened, facial areas over the sinuses that are tender to percussion (tapping) and drainage from the nose that is similar to pus. Sometimes additional information is used to diagnose this information, such as patient history, and certain tests such as a CT scan or MRI might also be performed because these tests are far better at revealing the actual infection than an X-Ray.

The sinuses are four pairs of hollow spaces in the bones of the face lined with mucous membranes and connected to the nose. The sinuses allow air to flow freely within the spaces in and out of the nose. Small hairs in the sinuses (cilia) regularly help move mucous out through the nose. When the small openings from the nose to the sinus cavities (sinus ostia) are blocked, or when too much mucous is produced, inflammation can occur within sinus cavities and cause acute sinusitis. :o.

[size=large][b]The Main Symptoms of Sinusitis are Pain and Pressure in the Face[/b][/size][hr]The location of pain and tenderness depends on which sinus is inflamed. When pain is over the cheek and upper teeth may be caused by the maxillary sinus' inflammation. Pain in the forehead above the eyebrow may be triggered by inflammation of the frontal sinus. Once pain is behind the eyes, on top of the head, or in both temples may be brought about by sphenoid sinus' inflammation. The inflammation of the ethmoid sinus can be identified by the pain around or behind the eyes. We are satisfied with this end product on Sinus. It was really worth the hard work and effort in writing so much on Sinus. Smile

[size=large][b]Fatigue-Even When You Should Feel Rested[/b][/size][hr]This is the sneakiest one of all. This is the one that creeps up on you slowly and unnoticed. If you are living with the symptoms on this list you are certainly not reaching your true potential at work, family life or at rest. It was with keen interest that we got about to writing on Sphenoid Sinus. Hope you read and appreciate it with equal interest.

[size=large][b]Sinus Infection Symptoms are Caused by Inflammation and Blockage of the Sinus Cavities[/b][/size][hr]Sinuses are hollow pockets of air located on either side of the nose, behind and in-between the eyes, and in the forehead. The sinuses produce mucus that cleans and moistens the membranes of the nose and throat. Each sinus has an opening into the nose that allows for free exchange of mucus and air. Sinus infection symptoms result when these openings get plugged. Enhancing your vocabulary is our intention with the writing of this article on Sinus Cavities. We have used new and interesting words to achieve this.

You feel like you may have a sinus infection, the right type of doctor that can answer your problem is an Otolaryngontolist or Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist. These doctors are well trained in the diagnosis and treatment of sinus infections.

[size=large][b]Nebulized Antibiotics[/b][/size][hr]Nebulized antibiotics are a way of treating infections topically. A new treatment called SinuNEB aerosolizes the antibiotics so that you breathe the antibiotics in through your nose, getting directly to the source of the problem. This type of treatment usually lasts 2-3 weeks. This is commonly aid with nebulizer device. In addition to what we had mentioned in the previous paragraph, much more has to be said about Sinusitis Patients. If space permits, we will state everything about it.

[list][*]Antibiotics In select cases, a doctor may decide on an intravenous (IV) antibiotic therapy.[*]For this treatment, antibiotics enter directly into the bloodstream through an injection.[*]This type of therapy generally lasts 4-6 weeks.[*]This is a more complex treatment compared to the first two given above.[*]Injection from the bloodstreams allows a faster effect of the medicine given.[*]Dealing with the infection doctor considers the following stages of treatment depending upon the severity of the problem.[*]Diagnosis tells which among the four stages of treatment will be given to the sufferer. [/list]

Quote:[list][*]The four treatments are as follows: Oral Antibiotics, Nebulized Antibiotics, IV Antibiotics and Sinus Surgery.[*]Oral Antibiotics Oral antibiotics are one of the most prescribed treatments for chronic sinusitis patients.[*]For this treatment, doctors prescribe a number of antibiotics that a patient takes on a daily basis for usually 2-3 weeks.[*]Usually, this is given to a patient suffering a minor infection. [/list]
