Frequently Asked Questions about Nose & Sinus Problems
What is the difference between sinusitis and a common cold?
A common cold usually settles within 7–10 days. Sinusitis tends to last longer and often causes facial pain or pressure, a blocked nose, thick nasal discharge and a reduced sense of smell. When these symptoms continue for more than 12 weeks, it is called chronic sinusitis.
When should I see an ENT specialist for sinus problems?
See an ENT specialist if your symptoms last more than 10 days, keep coming back several times a year, disturb your sleep or breathing, or if you have lost your sense of smell. Swelling around the eyes, changes in vision or a severe headache with fever need urgent medical attention.
Can sinusitis be treated without surgery?
Yes. Most patients improve with medical treatment such as saline nasal rinses, steroid nasal sprays, antibiotics when a bacterial infection is present, and allergy management. Surgery is considered only when symptoms continue despite proper treatment, or when nasal polyps or a structural problem are blocking the sinuses.
What is FESS and how long is the recovery?
Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) is done through the nostrils with a thin camera (endoscope), so there are no external cuts or visible scars. Most patients return to routine activities within 1–2 weeks and attend follow-up visits so the nose can be cleaned and healing checked.
Do I need surgery for a deviated nasal septum?
Not always. Many people have a slightly deviated septum without any symptoms. Septoplasty is advised only when the deviation causes persistent nasal blockage, breathing difficulty or repeated sinus infections that do not improve with medicines.
Is nasal endoscopy painful?
Nasal endoscopy is a quick outpatient test. The nose is numbed with a spray before a thin endoscope is passed in, so most patients feel only mild pressure or discomfort for a few minutes.
How are nasal allergies diagnosed and treated?
Allergy testing helps identify triggers such as dust, pollen or pollution. Treatment may include avoiding triggers, antihistamines, steroid nasal sprays and, for some patients, immunotherapy to reduce sensitivity over time.
