In this time of seasonal change, many people suffer from sinusitis. Sinusitis is an uncomfortable condition that refers to a group of disorders characterised by symptoms of nasal discharge, nasal congestion, sinus, pain and frontal headaches due to an inflammation of the mucus membranes. It can be caused by a bacterial, fungal, or viral infection, or it can arise from an allergic reaction. Pain occurs in the forehead, between the eyes, or in the mouth area with yellow or green discharge from the nose, often dripping into the throat.
Using Chinese Medicine, Imad Trad Acupuncturist at Parramatta, investigates if the sinusitis is caused by external factors like wind and cold or by internal factors like poor diet or emotional disorder. We also investigate which organs are the most affected.
In general, Sinusitis is closely related to the spleen and the lung. The spleen which can be impaired with a wrong diet or some excessive emotions, produces the phlegm and the lung stores it. The nose is regarded as an accessory of the lung, which means any disorder of the lung can manifest in the nose.
Iman Trad Acupuncturist would diagnose the root cause of the Sinusitis and tailor the treatment accordingly. Acupuncture is very efficient in treating Sinusitis, it restores back the balance to the affected organs and it gradually reduces the severity and the occurrence of its episodes.
