What is chronic sinusitis?
Your sinuses are air-filled spaces in the bones around your nose, cheeks and forehead. Normally they drain freely into the nose. When their lining stays swollen for three months or more, drainage slows, mucus builds up and the sinuses stay inflamed — this is chronic sinusitis.
Common drivers include untreated nasal allergies, polyps, a deviated septum, frequent colds and infections, and irritants such as smoke and pollution. Often more than one is involved, which is why quick fixes rarely last.
Dr. Sai Prateek uses nasal endoscopy to look directly at where your sinuses drain, and arranges a scan if needed. Most patients improve with a structured medical plan; surgery is discussed only when a blockage or polyps won't settle with treatment.
Symptoms of chronic sinusitis
Symptoms that last for weeks, or keep returning, deserve a specialist opinion.

Chronic sinusitis FAQs
Will I need sinus surgery?
Most people don't. A structured plan — medication, nasal sprays and rinses, and controlling allergies — settles many cases. Surgery is considered if polyps or a structural blockage keep the sinuses from draining.
Why do you look inside the nose with a camera?
A nasal endoscope is a slim camera that shows the sinus openings clearly. It helps confirm sinusitis and spot polyps or other blockages that a normal examination can miss.
How is chronic sinusitis different from a sinus infection?
A short sinus infection after a cold usually clears in a few weeks. Chronic sinusitis is inflammation that lasts 12 weeks or longer and needs its underlying cause treated.
Are allergies part of the problem?
Very often. Allergic swelling in the nose can block sinus drainage, so controlling allergies is a key part of treatment.
Is every 'sinus headache' really sinusitis?
No. Facial pain and headaches have many causes. An ENT examination helps make sure you are treating the right problem.
