What is Sinusitis and how does it affect the four sinus cavities?

The term sinusitis means an inflammation of one or more of thesinus cavities. 

When an irritation or allergy is inhaled through the nose it often lands on themucus membranes surrounding the sinus cavities. These membranes are highlysensitive and can become irritated very easily. When this happens, the mucusmembranes begin to swell and become thick. They also start to produce moremucus.

Any thickening in these areas can result in the narrowing of theexit pathways or ostia making it difficult for mucus to drain freely. As mucusbecomes trapped and builds up in the sinus cavities tremendous pressure, painand headaches can be felt.

It is this blocked or trapped mucus that is the main reason whyone develops sinusitis or sinus infections (acute, chronic or recurrent) as anyaccumulated mucus can become a haven for bacteria propagation and growth.

Fever and fatigue are two of the body’s natural, systematic ways to signal aninflammation of one or more of the mucus membranes when they become invaded bybacteria.

In very rare cases, untreated sinusitis can spread towards the back of the headaffecting the brain and becoming life threatening.

Sinusitis can be classified based on which sinus cavities itaffects:

Antritis is a type of sinusitis which occurs when only the maxillary sinus cavities are inflamed. It is also known as maxillary sinusitis and can be identified as chronic, acute or sub-acute.Ethmoiditis occurs when the ethmoid sinus cavities become infected and can occur chronically or on an acute basis. Another name for ethmoiditis is ethmoid sinusitis.Sphenoiditis, which is alsoknown as sphenoid sinusitis can present itself as chronic sinusitis but more often than not, is an acute infection.Frontal sinusitis occurs when your frontal sinus cavities become infected. These infections can be acute or chronic.

What causes Chronic sinusitis?

Allergies and bacterial infections are the main causes of Chronic Sinusitis.The overuse of antibiotics and cortisone sprays have led to more infectious forms of bacteria forming as well as new fungal infections of the sinus cavities.Asthma and allergic disorders often cause chronic inflammation to the nasal mucosa. This type of inflammation is the main contributor to the development of Chronic Sinusitis.Frequent use of medications can cause:

The development of drug resistant sinusitis.Chronic usage of nasal sprays causes’ drying up of the sinuses initially which is seen as a “good sign”, however over time this leads to rebound congestion.Rebound congestion can result in the development of mucus blockage, a pressure sensation in the sinuses, fever, poor sleep, headaches and post nasal drip.A change in normal sinus mucosa make-up resulting in a chronic debilitating illness.Symptoms of Chronic Sinusitis include:

Chronic sore throat and halitosis (Bad Breath)Restlessness and discomfort throughout the dayBlocked nasal passages and congestionPersistent headachesThick, green mucusA dry, fuzzy and thick tongueHeavy pressure experienced in the facial regionDID YOU KNOW: A recent study has shown that 20% of patients with chronicsinusitis may develop nasal polyps.
