Hello Pardeshi Ji,

Curing sinus problems permanently depends on what's causing them—some people have occasional infections, while others suffer from chronic sinusitis due to allergies, nasal structure issues, or frequent infections.

👃 What Causes Chronic Sinus Problems?

Allergies (like dust, pollen, pollution)
Nasal polyps or a deviated nasal septum
Recurrent infections
Weak immune response

✅ Long-Term Treatment Options:

Lifestyle and Medical Management
- Use saline nasal sprays or steam inhalation daily to keep the sinuses clear
- Manage allergies with antihistamines, nasal corticosteroids, or immunotherapy (allergy shots)
- Avoid known triggers like dust, smoke, and pollution
Surgery for Permanent Relief
If your symptoms don’t improve with medicines, a doctor may suggest:
- FESS (Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery) – a minimally invasive procedure to open up blocked sinuses and remove polyps or infection
- Septoplasty – to correct a deviated septum that’s blocking airflow
