Chronic or frequently recurring sinusitis

Extract

• Chronic sinusitis is divided into two types: inflammation with and without nasal polyps.
• The diagnosis, conservative treatment and examination of any underlying factors can be done in an outpatient setting.
• An ENT specialist should be consulted if inflammatory symptoms are prolonged despite treatment or if the patient has had at least 3 separate episodes of sinusitis within one year.
• Asthma tests should be performed for patients with lower respiratory tract symptoms, as necessary.
