Sinusitis symptoms vary from those of a common cold. Typically, cold symptoms improve within 3-5 days, versus sinusitis and its array of ailments that can linger for 10 days without improvement. Additional symptoms may include:

Facial pain with or without pressure: This sensation will occur around the eyes, nose, jaw and teeth
Fatigue: Feeling extra tired from lack of sleep brought on by pain and congestion
Low grade fever
Continual stuffy nose and congestion: Nasal passages swell (causing stuffiness) which makes breathing difficult
Blocked nasal passageways
Decreased sense of smell and taste
Headaches
Postnasal drip: Mucus trickles down the back of the nose into the throat
Nasal discharge: Green or yellow mucus drains from the nose

It is imperative that you receive an accurate sinusitis diagnosis from a trusted ENT specialist. At Capitol Breathe Free, our expert physicians and specialized staff can help you STOP sinusitis.

Stop Sinusitis and regain your vitality

Suffering from sinusitis tends to feel isolating. Our experienced practitioners can offer a variety of treatment options spanning from over-the-counter medications to surgical procedures in order to address persistent indications of sinusitis.

Medications: Depending on the symptoms, severity, and duration, our physicians may conclude that medications are the best course of action to alleviate your symptoms. This may involve prescription medications, over-the-counter options, or home remedies.
o Decongestants: used to reduce swelling of the sinus lining
o Nasal and systemic steroids: used to reduce chronic inflammation
o Mucolytics: used to thin the thickened nasal secretions
o Sinus irrigation: used to cleanse the sinuses
Balloon Sinuplasty: Balloon sinuplasty, also known as balloon sinus dilation, is a minimally invasive procedure designed to gently enlarge your natural sinus openings, aiming to enhance drainage and correct nasal anatomy. It offers a patient-friendly alternative to traditional surgery.
o STOP sinusitis with ONE procedure (so you’re one and done).
o Performed conveniently in the comfort of our office, the balloon sinuplasty procedure lasts about an hour.
o It offers quick recovery time with excellent results.

Sinus Surgery: Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) can be an appropriate option for select sinusitis sufferers. The objective of this procedure is to improve sinus drainage and the overall function of nasal anatomy by facilitating the natural flow of mucus with the expansion of the sinus openings. Balloon sinuplasty can also be utilized alongside an FESS procedure.
