Sinuses are hollow spaces within the bones of the face. There are three pairs of sinuses: frontal, ethmoid, maxillary and one single sinus at the skull base that is called sphenoid. Each pair connects to the nose through small openings called ostia and acts to humidify and warm the air you breathe, add to your sense of smell and taste, and play a significant role in the quality of human sound. Additionally, these air-filled pockets help lighten your heavy skull, making it easier to keep your head upright. Sinuses are lined with a mucous membrane called the mucosa. When your sinuses are healthy, they secrete a thin layer of mucus over the mucosa that drains into the nasal passages through the ostia. The mucosa acts as a filter to trap inhaled germs, dust, pollens, and environmental pollutants before they can reach your respiratory system. When the sinuses are inflamed or irritated, the ostia become blocked. Mucus accumulates inside the sinuses and becomes a breeding ground for viruses and bacteria. What is sinusitis? Sinusitis is an inflammation of the mucosa of various sinuses? What is rhinitis? Rhinitis is an inflammation of the mucosa (delicate lining of the inner body surfaces) of nasal passges. How does someone differentiate between rhinitis and sinusitis? Due to overlapping symptoms, it may be difficult to differentiate between the two. Usually, symptoms of rhinitis include stuffy, runny or drippy nose, scratchy throat and dry cough. Symptoms of sinusitis are more severe than the symptoms of rhinitis and often include increased nasal secretions and pain around the sinuses, such as facial pressure and pain. What are the causes of rhinitis and sinusitis? Cold viruses Allergies Bacterial or fungal infections Grass and smog Dust or environmental pollutants Nasal polyps and deviated nasal septum GERD or moderate to severe acid reflux Smoking What are nasal decongestants and when should they be used? Nasal decongestants constrict the dilated blood vessels and reduce nasal and sinus congestion. You can get further advice about their use from your doctor or pharmacist. What are antihistamines? Antihistamines are the most common medications used to treat allergies. They work by blocking the effects of histamine, which is released during an allergic reaction. They help relieve the symptoms of sneezing, itchy nose and eyes and runny nose. They are not as helpful with nasal congestion. They could be prescription or over the counter at your local store.
