DEV ENT and Eye Care Hospital, under the expertise of Dr. Debabrata Panigrahi, specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of sinusitis. Here is some information about sinusitis and how the hospital can help:
Sinusitis is the inflammation of the mucous membrane that lines the sinuses. The sinuses are air-filled spaces located around the nasal cavity. There are four pairs of sinuses: frontal sinus, sphenoid sinus, ethmoid sinus, and maxillary sinus.
When the sinus lining becomes inflamed, it can cause symptoms such as excess mucus production, sinus infections, and inflamed sinus lining. Sinusitis can lead to various discomforts, including facial pain, headache, nasal congestion, and difficulty breathing.
DEV ENT and Eye Care Hospital, with their expertise in ENT care, can provide comprehensive evaluation and treatment options for sinusitis. They may recommend:
Diagnosis: The hospital can perform a thorough evaluation, which may include a physical examination, medical history review, and diagnostic tests such as nasal endoscopy, CT scan, or allergy testing. These help in determining the cause and severity of sinusitis.
Medications: Based on the diagnosis, appropriate medications can be prescribed to reduce inflammation, manage infections, and alleviate symptoms. This may include antibiotics, nasal corticosteroids, decongestants, or antihistamines.
Sinus drainage: In cases where there is a buildup of mucus or blockage, procedures such as nasal irrigation or sinus drainage may be recommended to help clear the sinuses.
Surgical intervention: In chronic or severe cases of sinusitis, when other treatments have not been effective, surgical options such as functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) may be considered to improve sinus drainage and alleviate symptoms.
Dr. Debabrata Panigrahi and the dedicated team at DEV ENT and Eye Care Hospital can provide personalized care and treatment plans tailored to the specific needs of patients with sinusitis.
It is important to consult with a healthcare professional for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment options for your individual condition.
