Sinusitis

Those headaches, the feeling of stuffiness and congestion inside your nose, the swelling around your eyes, are all signs of Sinusitis. Sinusitis can be a very prolonged and painstaking problem, if left untreated for a long time. It basically refers to the inflammation or swelling of the sinus glands. This happens when the bacteria or virus infects our sinus glands through an allergic reaction or a weak immune system. “When the nasal congestion (stuffiness) associated with the common cold or allergies doesn't allow the sinuses to drain properly, bacteria can become trapped inside the sinuses, leading to bacterial sinusitis”. If you are developing symptoms of sinusitis, then try to avoid dairy and wheat products, spicy food and any packed food products. Consult a doctor immediately, who will prescribe antibiotics to you, depending upon the severity of your infection.
