What Is Sinusitis? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Chronic sinusitis is a widespread condition affecting 37 million Americans. This inflammation of the sinuses occurs when the sinus opening becomes blocked, preventing mucus from draining properly. It causes cold-like symptoms that include congestion, runny nose, sore throat, facial pain and swelling, loss of smell or taste, bad breath, fatigue and headache. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is most often caused by viral infections, but can also occur as a result of nasal polyps, a deviated septum or head trauma. Medical solutions work for some, but others continue to suffer despite numerous attempts using a variety of treatments. Balloon Sinuplasty may be the answer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s Different About Balloon Sinuplasty? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Conventional sinus surgical procedures involve cutting and excision of bone and tissue, a process that may cause pain and scarring and requires a recovery period. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In comparison, Balloon Sinuplasty is quick (the average operating time is 73 minutes) and relatively painless, and has a lower risk of complications or side effects. It is FDA-approved and considered a safe alternative to endoscopic sinus surgery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Is Balloon Sinuplasty Performed? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Balloon Sinuplasty is typically performed in an outpatient setting. You\u2019ll be given either a local or general anesthetic before a balloon catheter is inserted into your sinus cavity. The balloon is then inflated in order to enlarge the sinus opening and widen the walls of the nasal passages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A saline solution is sprayed into the cavity to flush out mucus and other debris; the catheter is then removed. The end result is open sinuses that enable normal breathing and drainage of fluids. Up to 95 percent of patients report a significant improvement in sinus symptoms following this procedure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are interested in Balloon Sinuplasty, speak with your doctor or an ENT specialist. A qualified physician will take a look at your medical history and help you determine which sinus treatment options are best for you. <\/p>\n\n\n
