Sinusitis is an exhausting condition that can have a challenging path to relief. Sometimes, it's misdiagnosed and treated with antibiotics that don't address the underlying condition, inflammation. Or it becomes an endless combination of allergy tests, steroid nasal sprays, oral steroids, and nasal irrigation. And, sufferers commonly hear horror stories about largely outdated surgical techniques l
ike removal of gauze packing and long recovery periods, which can discourage seeking other treatments. Because of this, sinusitis sufferers often spend years or decades enduring the condition and learn to accept it as normal. Sometimes symptoms associated with sinusitis can cause decreased ability to smell, taste, travel easily, work productively, sleep soundly and enjoy free time and can become a regular way of life. They often don't realize what they're missing ─ or that treatment options have improved, and there may be new alternatives.
