If you have these five symptoms, be sure to be alert to the symptoms of sinusitis!

Rhinitis and sinusitis are both prevalent in spring, and the symptoms are very similar. This leads to sinusitis being mistaken for rhinitis, and the wrong medicine aggravates the condition and causes more harm. Therefore, timely identification of symptoms is the key to solving the symptoms of sinusitis!

Qingbi Hall: What are the symptoms of sinusitis!

When sinusitis occurs, the nasal mucosa tissue will become congested and swollen, so the nasal cavity will become blocked. In addition, sinusitis will cause increased secretions of the nasal mucosa, which will also block the nasal cavity, causing frequent nasal congestion.

Especially when you go to bed at night or get up in the morning, the nasal cavity is stimulated by cold air and the symptoms of nasal congestion are more obvious.

Most patients with sinusitis will have a runny nose. However, the runny nose is mostly yellow or yellow-green, because this kind of runny nose is caused by the nasal mucosa being stimulated by bacteria or viruses and secreting purulent and mucopurulent substances.

Especially when the patient lies down, the mucus may flow back into the throat, causing the patient to have paroxysmal coughing.

3. Headache Under normal circumstances, people with chronic sinusitis generally do not experience headaches, unless the disease develops more seriously, it will cause different degrees of pain in the head. 4. Olfactory disorders Patients with long-term purulent nasal discharge and nasal congestion, and excessive stimulation and damage to the viscous nasal cavity will cause patients to have olfactory disorders. 5. Systemic symptoms When the condition of sinusitis worsens, it will also cause systemic symptoms in some patients. The more common ones are: dizziness, physical fatigue, lack of energy or depression, loss of appetite, insomnia, memory loss, etc. A very small number of patients may also have visual impairment.

Qingbitang kindly reminds you: the symptoms of sinusitis are a difficult disease to resolve, so you need to persist in conditioning for a long time. In daily life, you should also pay attention to improving your body's immunity through diet, exercise, and improving your living habits, so as to protect your nasal cavity from being stimulated and prevent sinusitis from recurring.
