Sinusitis

Sinusitis, defined as inflammation of one or more of the paranasal sinuses, is characterized as acute when lasting less than 4 weeks, subacute when lasting 4 to 8 weeks, and chronic when lasting longer than 8 weeks. Prominent symptoms of acute sinusitis include nasal congestion, purulent rhinorrhea, facial-dental pain, postnasal drainage, headache, and cough. Chronic sinusitis symptoms are similar but might be even more subtle. Pain is much less a feature of chronic sinusitis. Clinical signs of both acute and chronic sinusitis include sinus tenderness on palpation, mucosal erythema, purulent nasal secretions,etc.
