[size=4][b]Sinuses - are You Being Troubled by Sinusitis?[/b][/size][hr]Is said that around 30 per cent of all people suffer chronic sinusitis or sinus infection at least once each year. Sinuses are little air pockets inside the skull bones. They are located to either side of the nose, behind and in between the eyes, in the forehead, and behind the head. Sinuses contain mucus that drains into the nasal passageways through pin holes in the sinuses.

[size=large][b]The Body Produces Histamines During Allergic Reactions[/b][/size][hr]Histamines are neuro-transmitter chemicals. Though histamines are always present in our body, an allergy attack causes more histamines to be released at the site of the allergy attack. When a mosquito bites, for example, histamines are released at the area of the bite making the skin there turn red and itchy. When histamines are released, they cause inflammation and constriction of the muscles. The symptoms of a sinus infection begin with headache, facial pain, nasal congestion, fever, green or yellow discharge, a heavy face feeling, etc. The infection usually lasts for three weeks or more. It is rather inviting to go on writing on Nasal Irrigation. however as there is a limitation to the number of words to be written, we have confined ourselves to this. However, do enjoy yourself reading it.

[list][*]When the sinus infection refuses to respond to medication, Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) is the most efficient treatment.[*]Prevention is always better than cure.[*]Stop smoking, because smoking is one of the chief stimulants of sinusitis (sinus infection).[*]Take an oral decongestant or a short course of nasal spray decongestant, especially before air travel.[*]Drink plenty of fluids, so the nasal discharge remains thin, and use antihistamines for controlling allergy attacks.[*]Allergy testing can also increase tolerance towards allergy inducing substances.[*]An allergic reaction is an unnecessary, and even dangerous, immune response that should be prevented.[*]Antihistamines counteract these immunological inconsistencies.[*]One of the factors that cause our immune system to go awry is the increasing presence of toxins in the environment.[*]These toxins also touch off allergy attacks in the body.[*]Isn't it amazing how much information can be transferred through a single page?[*]So much stands to gain, and to lose about Sinusitis Sinus Infection through a single page.[/list]

[size=large][b]Sinus Infection Happens When the Paranasal Sinuses on Either Side of the Nose Get Inflamed[/b][/size][hr]This happens during a cold or an allergy attack, when more histamines are produced in the paranasal sinuses. The inflammation blocks the narrow passageways, making the mucus collect there. This collected mucus soon becomes a breeding ground for bacteria. That's how a sinus infection begins. Writing is something that has to be done when one is in the mood to write. So when we got in the mood to write about Sinusitis Sinus Infection, nothing could stop us from writing!

Recent research has found that a new group of sugars called glyconutrients could represent the next frontier in building a robust immune system. Eight of these essential sugars have already been discovered. They play a major role in the some of the body's most fundamental chemical processes, and also have a role in keeping the human immune system in perfect order. As the information we produce in our writing on Sinusitis Sinus Infection may be utilized by the reader for informative purposes, it is very important that the information we provide be true. We have indeed maintained this.

Quote:Consuming glyconutrients through natural dietary supplements could go a long way in regulating histamine-induced disorders and allergies, and in preventing sinus infections. Ignorance is bliss, is it? Isn't it better to learn more than not to know about something like Sinus Surgery. So we have produced this article so that you can learn more about it!

Nasal congestion is irritating and at times it can cause severe problems like headache, too much of sneezing and breathing problems. Normally we don't experience nasal congestion but it occurs in two cases- attack from cold or flu and sinusitis. In both the cases the treatments are almost the same but in severe sinusitis when the congestion is caused due to an outgrowth of sinus or mucus layering of your nose it needs operation to get rid of congestion. The operation performed is called Endoscopic sinus surgery. Anyways let us not go to that much deep into it and find out some common method to get rid of congestion.

The methods to get rid of congestion are very simple which can be performed within your home and you don't need any special medical care or assistance of a nurse or doctor to do them. One may prefer to use sprays but sprays are harmful since they contain some drugs or chemicals in them which may cause side effects. At the same time they are very much dear in prices. There is again another disadvantage with the sprays, they finish at one point and what if that night the nose drives you mad? So learn some simple methods to get rid of congestion. Here are few simple methods to get rid of nasal congestion We have tried to place the best definition about Severe Sinusitis in this article. This has taken a lot of time, but we only wish that the definition we gave suits your needs.

You must drink more water and juices to help liquefy the mucus that congests the passage of nostrils. You can take three or four spoons of lemon juice which would help in getting remove the congestion Whenever one reads any reading matter likeEndoscopic Sinus Surgery, it is vital that the person enjoys reading it. One should grasp the meaning of the matter, only then can it be considered that its reading is complete.

[list][*]Massage the nostril area just beneath the eyes gently while you take heat vapors of hot water mixed with mint.[*]You will find that the congestion goes away very gently.[/list]

[size=large][b]Put Pressure on the Cavity of the Nose Gently With Your Fingers[/b][/size][hr]Slowly rub the nose with your palm. Not violently but gently. Try to breathe air in and out a little fast. This stimulates the congested area and the muscles of the nose remove the congestion automatically.

[list][*]Drinking some beverage like tea also help loosen the lung secretions and this in turn remove the nasal congestion.[*]There are other methods to get rid of congestion.[*]You will find the web a rich source for such techniques and methods which are practiced all over the world.[*]Sinus Mucus proved to be the foundation for the writing of this page.[*]We have used all facts and definitions of Sinus Mucus to produce worthwhile reading material for you.[/list]

How many times have you heard someone say: "I think I'm coming down with a cold."? No doubt many times. In fact, most of us have'said that'or made'a similar statement, ourselves. Now a days when someone I know tells me that I usually reply: "Could it be allergies?" Because many of those "colds" are probably allergy reactions to the environment. As I look back to my childhood days one cannot, but wonder at the strong possibility that all those tablespoons of cod liver oil my mother faithfully administered----in their full natural flavor, as commonly done in those days--to prevent my getting a "cold," although not a bad idea'were probably unnecessary since'my frequent runny nose, coughing and'post nasal drip'were very likely'caused by allergens.'Even, perhaps, by'the thick smog'that'had developed in the large city I grew up in.

Several years went by and we moved farther North where carpets are more commonly used than in the Southwest and I began to once again have "cold" symptoms. At least that's what we thought at first. Since I was hardly using cow's milk and had resumed the allergy injections my wife'and I wondered, what could the cause of'the post nasal drip, etc.,'be this time. So I went back to an allergy specialist in our new area.'After doing some testing'he found'I was very allergic to house dust.'In the process of being given the allergy tests I found that not all house dust'is'created equal. Some dusts contain large amounts of dust mite droppings. This kind of'mites thrive in a humid and warm environment, like the one produced by the human body while lying in bed,'where the mites'eat mostly microscopic particles of human skin that rubs off there and on the carpet. The tests'did show'I was very allergic to that kind of house dust. Thereupon I was given minute instructions by my doctor'on how to shield my bed'from the'little varmints and their'droppings. The devastating allergic effects I was having'began to subside, especially when to my allergy injections was added the dust mite droppings antigen. Sinusitis is the substance of this composition. Without Sinusitis, there would not have been much to write and think about over here!

There can definitely be an allergy connection to'how to relieve sinus pressure and other sinus problems. My case is not unique. If one is suffering from ongoing sinus problems it might not be a bad idea to consider testing for allergies to the environment and possibly foods, especially if your health insurance covers these tests.

As I studied my sinus problem several years ago, I came to the conclusion that the two main causes of my problem were: some foods'and environmental allergies. Whenever I indulged in a milk shake or a large serving of ice cream I had serious post nasal drip in a matter of hours. And whenever I had a large glass of cow's milk 3 or more days in a row I had the same result. I would stop drinking milk for several days or stop eating ice cream and the sinuses would clear up in just a few days. The seeming correlation became so obvious that I finally decided, a number of years ago, to stop using these food items on a regular basis and, of course, the sinuses cleared up indefinitely.

Then came spring time and as weeds and their flowers, and trees and their own flowers made their appearance once again in our area, the same allergic reaction I had had to the foods already mentioned, above,'began to reappear, except that' I wasn't using them. So, it became obvious that I was allergic to certain pollens and probably other allergens. I had pollen allergy tests made and sure enough there were a number of pollens I was very allergic to. With these results on hand the only alternative I had was:'move to a place where there were not pollens I was allergic to--probably something rather impossible--or begin to receive allergy injections on a regular basis. I opted for the latter. In addition to what we had mentioned in the previous paragraph, much more has to be said about Sinus. If space permits, we will state everything about it.
