Sinus inflammation

A draining problem

It starts as a typical cold  a scratchy throat, a stuffed-up nose and a run-down feeling. But instead of tapering off over the course of a week or so, pressure builds up around your forehead and face and the feeling of sickness lingers.

If this sounds familiar, you've likely experienced some type of sinus inflammation or infection. Often, acute sinus inflammation (sinusitis) is successfully treated with an antibiotic medication.

But not every sinus problem is that simple. With ongoing sinus problems, careful diagnosis of the underlying problem is crucial to treatment.
