Find Lasting Relief from Chronic Sinusitis with Our Expert Care

Chronic sinusitis can disrupt your daily life with persistent inflammation and swelling in the sinus cavities. When sinusitis lasts beyond eight weeks, it often requires specialized care to address the symptoms and underlying issues. At Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Medical Group, our experienced allergists are dedicated to helping you find lasting relief from chronic sinusitis by utilizing advanced diagnostic methods and personalized treatment plans.

Diagnosis

Accurate diagnosis is crucial for effectively managing chronic sinusitis. To uncover the root cause of your condition, we employ a range of diagnostic tests:

Imaging: A CAT scan of the sinus cavities can provide detailed images to identify blockages or structural abnormalities contributing to sinusitis.

Rhinoscopy: This procedure allows us to view the inside of your sinus cavities and nasal passages, helping us detect nasal polyps or other abnormalities that may be causing or exacerbating your symptoms.

Allergy Testing: Allergy skin tests can reveal sensitivities that might trigger or worsen your sinusitis. Identifying these allergens is critical to developing an effective management plan.

Immune System Workup: We conduct comprehensive tests for patients with a suspected immune deficiency to evaluate immune function and determine if it contributes to your chronic sinusitis.

Treatment

At Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology Medical Group, we offer a range of treatments tailored to both the symptoms and causes of chronic sinusitis:

Saline Nasal Irrigation: This method helps clear mucus and reduce inflammation in the sinuses, relieving congestion and discomfort.

Corticosteroids: To manage inflammation, we may prescribe corticosteroids, which can help reduce swelling and improve sinus drainage.

Antibiotics: If a bacterial infection causes your sinusitis, antibiotics may be necessary to address the infection and alleviate symptoms.

Allergy Treatments: If allergies contribute to sinusitis, we offer treatments such as allergy medications or immunotherapy to reduce allergic reactions and prevent recurring inflammation.

Surgical Referral: In cases where sinusitis is due to anatomical issues, we may refer you to a specialized sinus surgeon for further evaluation and possible surgical intervention.
