Sinusitis Treatment Hospital in Himatnagar
Sinusitis is swelling or infection of the sinuses – air spaces around the nose and eyes. It causes a blocked nose, thick discharge, facial pain and headache. When it keeps coming back or lasts more than 12 weeks, it is called chronic sinusitis, and soft growths called nasal polyps may form. At Pluto Hospital, Himatnagar, ENT surgeon Dr. Meeta Jain treats sinusitis and nasal polyps with medicines, CT evaluation and sinus surgery when needed.
Understanding the Condition
Acute vs Chronic Sinusitis
Acute sinusitis usually follows a cold and settles in 1–2 weeks. Chronic sinusitis lasts for months and is often linked to allergies, a bent nasal septum or nasal polyps. Polyps are non-cancerous growths that block the nose and reduce smell. A CT scan of the sinuses shows the extent of disease and helps plan treatment.

Common Questions
Sinusitis FAQs
Can sinusitis be cured permanently?
Acute sinusitis usually clears fully. Chronic sinusitis can be well controlled with treatment and, when needed, surgery.
Are nasal sprays safe for long use?
Steroid nasal sprays prescribed by a doctor are safe. Decongestant drops should not be used for more than a few days.
Do nasal polyps come back after surgery?
They can, especially with allergies. Regular sprays and follow-up reduce this.
Is sinus surgery painful?
It is done through the nose, without cuts on the face, and most people recover in a few days.
Does steam help?
Yes. Steam and saline nasal wash help clear mucus and ease blockage.
