Effective Solutions for Sinusitis Patients

Despite its frequent attacks on millions of people around the world every year, Sinusitis is rarely given the due treatment, as patients always target handling the symptoms, while overlooking the main cause of the symptoms. However, FINess sinus offers the patients an instant and long lasting cure of the symptoms, as well as of the source of the symptoms.

Sinusitis is the inflammation of the sinuses, the empty cavities inside the brain, which are directly and constantly connected with the nose. These cavities are coated with a delicate mucous membrane that protects the body from dust and germs, casually entering the body with the air during the process of breathing. Sinus infection results in the presence of some bacteria inside these cavities, causing swelling. The swelling ultimately blocks the air from reaching the sinus resulting in continuous headache and nose blockage, which sometimes develop to difficulty in breathing. The brutality of the symptoms demands permanent treatment instead of primarily targeting sinusitis.

FINess sinus treatment is surgical endoscopic procedure that is normally performed under local anesthetics. The procedure basically involves a balloon insertion inside the sinus through the nose. The balloon instantaneously unclogs the swollen sinus tissues, and relieves the acute headache. The advantages of FINess treatment are not exclusive to the immediate relief, but also include the procedure’s guarantee of rapid recovery and of minimal tissue loss.

However, in some more serious sinusitis conditions, the balloon endoscopy becomes less effective. For chronic sinusitis, doctors recommend the Pillar procedure, a surgical procedure that is relatively more complicated than the FINess treatment. This procedure involves the placement of three to five pillars of polyester with a diameter of 2mm each, implanted inside the soft palate. The pillars will, eventually, control the vibration of the palatal tissue, after 4-6 weeks of the surgery. This tenure will ensure that the pillar implants has stiffened and are ready to function effectively. The pillars will not compromise the patient’s ability to speak or to swallow. The Pillar operation becomes mandatory provided the physician detected that the infection is reaching for the brain or that the nasal air passage is completely blocked.
For mild sinusitis, patients opt for antibiotics and other drugs, as alternatives to surgical operations.
