Sinusitis Symptoms of Infection
|
Sinusitis Infection develops when there is an inflammation of the sinus cavities usually caused by a blockage of foreign debris or a pathogen in the nasal passageways. Sinusitis takes place usually as a result of a cold or an allergy which causes swelling of the sinus cavity walls. However, when bacteria enter the sinus cavities and attack the already swollen cavity lining, the opening of the sinuses can become swollen shut. The cilium, small hairs inside the nasal passageways whose function is to remove pathogens cannot perform their designated function during a sinusitis infection. Typically, the cilia flush out bacteria and excess mucus obstructing the sinus cavities. However, when there is a significant amount of inflammation and the infection grows inside the blocked sinuses, the cilia cannot assist with removing pathogens; this is the starting point of a sinusitis infection. There is a wide variety of sinusitis symptoms of infection that can develop with a sinusitis infection. Common symptoms of a sinusitis infection include:
When the sinuses are infected there may be added symptoms resulting in pain behind and around the eyes and in the forehead area. Sinusitis typically develops due to a blockage of bacteria and mucus in the nasal passages as well as trapped bacteria and mucus inside the sinus cavity. · The bacteria or other foreign matter can become trapped as bacteria continue to attack the already swollen cavity lining, causing more inflammation in the entrance of the sinus cavity and inside the actual sinus cavities. What to take There are many treatment options available for a sinusitis infection. The most common treatment utilized by physicians is an oral antibiotic, however ineffective. Oral antibiotics treat infections by entering the blood stream and move through the blood stream by way of the blood vessels. Oral antibiotics rely on the small amount of blood vessels in the sinus cavities to deliver medication to the site of infection making it difficult for an effective amount of medication to be distributed to the sinusitis infection. Nasal sprays are also frequently prescribed or purchased over the counter to alleviate sinusitis. Nasal sprays are also limited in their effectiveness due to their large particle size. The large size of the nasal spray particle prohibits delivery into or around the upper sinus cavity openings or depositing medication onto the inflammation in the upper sinus regions; nasal sprays are unable to provide treatment to the infected upper sinus cavity. Treatment options – alternative treatments Sinus Dynamics offers a topical treatment approach to sinusitis by delivering aerosolized medications directly into the sinus cavities with a 3.2 micron sized particle of antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal with a state of the art nebulizer. Sinus Dynamics custom compounded topical sinus treatment directly deposits medication into the sinus cavity with their state of the art nebulizers, making contact with the inflammation and the actual site of the sinusitis infection. The advantage of using a nebulizer to deliver medications into the deep sinus regions is that the fine medicated mist can travel into even the tiniest of sinus openings and begin treating the infected sinus cavities, and reduce inflammation. Sinus Dynamics treatment approach does not rely on the blood stream to deliver medication to the infection which also results in a low systemic absorption rate with little to no side effects. Sinus Dynamics has a 98% success rate, offering the latest and fastest technology in the treatment of sinusitis on the market.
