Hyderabad: The Sinus diseases and their complications are on rise in the recent years. More so worrying is more and more patients are coming in complication stage. To educate the citizens, more so sinus patients MAA ENT hospital is conducting a camp over three days at 5.00pm and conducting an interactive health talk on Sinusitis.
Dr. K.R. Meghanadh, Managing Director & Chief ENT Consultant, MAA ENT Hospitals recounted: ‘Recently the hospital treated one patient with long standing sinusitis which encroached to right eye and he lost the vision completely in the right eye.
He approached us after 4 days of the loss of vision and fortunately with optic nerve (nerve of vision) decompression he recovered completely. Such complication cases are on rise. This is happening because of lack of awareness about the sinusitis. With good health education not only the complications and even the sinusitis also can be prevented.
Usual common cold caused by influenza virus is self limiting conditions and 98% of times it subsides without treatment. In 1-2% of patients this progresses to acute bacterial sinusitis.
This progression can be prevented by using oxymetazoline or xylometazoline nose drops twice daily for 5 days and take plain simple hot water steam. Once bacterial sinusitis develops it needs antibiotic course for 7-10 days and if not taken properly it will lead to Chronic Bacterial Sinusitis. This may get worsened with addition of Fungal sinusitis. Untreated fungal sinusitis can lead to complications.
