The sinuses are located close to the nasal cavities and near the ear. Symptoms of sinusitis include headache, earache, facial pain, loss of sense of smell, tenderness over the forehead and cheekbones and occasionally a high fever.
Causes Of Sinusitis
More than 50% of sinusitis cases are caused by bacteria. Structural problems such as deviated septum or grown of polyps can obstruct the flow of mucus out of the sinuses. This is not an infectious condition to begin with, but since the mucus is obstructed, this creates a perfect environment for bacteria to create an infection.
Factors involved in chronic sinusitis include pollution, occupational dust exposure, tobacco smoke, allergies, rhinitis, cold and damp weather, dental problems, trauma and flying.
