Sinus issues can significantly impact your quality of life, causing discomfort and disrupting your daily routine. Symptoms like congestion and headaches can affect both your physical health and mental well-being. At Tampa Bay Breathe Free, we understand the toll sinusitis can take on your overall wellness. That’s precisely why our goal is to offer effective relief, helping you feel better and get back to your daily activities with greater ease. Let’s work together to find solutions that reduce your sinus symptoms and support your long-term comfort.
STOP Sinusitis Symptoms
Sinusitis symptoms stand out from those of a common cold. While cold symptoms usually subside within 3-5 days, sinusitis and its range of discomforts linger for over 10 days without relief. Additional symptoms may include:
- Facial pressure and/or pain around the eyes, nose, jaw, and teeth
- Fatigue caused by poor sleep from pain and congestion at night
- Low grade fever
- Persistent congestion caused by swollen nasal passages, leading to difficulty breathing and a stuffy nose
- Blocked nasal passageways
- Diminished sense of smell and taste
- Headaches
- Postnasal drip (mucus trickling down the back of the nose into the throat)
- Nasal discharge (mucus that is green, yellow or cloudy in color, draining from the nose)
Obtaining a proper diagnosis from an ENT expert is essential. At Tampa Bay Breathe Free, our experienced team is committed to helping you overcome your sinus issues and restore your quality of life.
STOP Sinusitis and Reclaim Your Health
Individuals suffering from sinusitis have a range of treatment options to explore with our board-certified ENT specialist, from over-the-counter medications to surgical interventions.
- Medication: Depending on your symptoms, their severity, and duration, our doctor may recommend various treatments to alleviate your discomfort. These could include prescription medications, over-the-counter remedies, or home-based treatments:
- Balloon Sinuplasty: Balloon sinuplasty, also known as balloon sinus dilation, is a minimally invasive, office-based procedure designed to gently enlarge your natural sinus openings. This helps improve drainage and enhances your nasal anatomy, providing a patient-friendly alternative to traditional surgery.
- Sinus Surgery: Functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS) could be an option for select patients. This procedure aims to enhance your sinus drainage by improving your nasal anatomy, facilitating the natural flow of mucus from your sinus openings. Balloon sinuplasty can also be performed in conjunction with a FESS.
