Avoid Invasive Sinus Surgery with Balloon Sinuplasty

non invasive sinus surgery Manasquan, NJ & Toms River, NJIf you are suffering from severe sinus pain or other sinus symptoms that has lasted for months, you should contact an otolaryngologist in Manasquan, NJ & Toms River, NJ. If you are experiencing severe sinus symptoms, you might be suffering from chronic sinusitis or rhinosinusitis. An otolaryngologist in Manasquan, NJ & Toms River, NJ will be able to diagnose you and determine whether you have a serious sinus problem, such as an infection. If you are suffering from sinusitis, you may need to endure a sinusitis operation, such as endoscopic sinus procedure, nasal polyp removal, and/or a sinus-balloon procedure.

Sinusitis or rhinosinusitis is a sinus infection, caused by inflamed sinuses. Sinus infection symptoms occur from infections, allergies, air pollution, or structural irregularity in the nose. Caused by a viral infection, most cases occur when an organism is attacked by an outside pathogenic virus. A bacterial infection is noticed when sinus symptoms last more than ten days, or begin to worsen again after improving. People with asthma, cystic fibrosis, and poor immune function are more susceptible to chronic sinusitis and recurring episodes. Symptoms of acute sinusitis include nasal infection paired with congestion and discharge; postnasal dripping accompanied by sore throat; pain across the cheekbone, around the eye and above the teeth; sinus headache and fever; and increased pain while coughing. Chronic sinusitis share symptoms similar to acute sinusitis, but is differentiated by length and severity.

Before performing any surgery, Dr. Dr. Ronald J. Iannacone at Atlantic ENT Associates will create a clinical history of the patient. He will have to determine the underlying cause of your acute or chronic sinusitis. If you search for sinus relief in midtown, sinus professionals will perform a sinus computed-tomography scan, a nasal physiology, smell testings, and/or selected blood tests in order to select the right operative strategy. The types of sinusitis operation include: functional endoscopic sinus procedure and image-guided surgery. Functional endoscopic sinus procedure is performed endoscopically using a fiberoptic nasopharyngoscope. Surgeons use fiber-optic imaging to see and operate inside the nasal cavity. They remove obstructive mucosal tissue, opening the sinus nasal passageway and allowing the sinuses to drain. If it is needed, a surgeon will perform nasal polyp removal during the same procedure.

These procedures should be considered only after all other options are rendered useless. Contact your Manasquan, NJ & Toms River, NJ doctor for a suggested list of medications that can treat sinusitis. For acute sinusitis, you doctor will prescribe antibiotics and possibly suggest using a nasal saline spray. In addition, nasal decongestion sprays can help reduce symptoms, but using them long term can cause dependency. An option to consider in avoiding invasive sinus surgery is the sinus-balloon procedure. In this procedure, surgeons use a small, flexible, balloon catheter to open up blocked sinus passageways, facilitating the drainage of mucus, done without any cutting or removal of bone and tissue.  If you have sinusitis, you are most likely an appropriate candidate for balloon sinuplasty surgery.  Finding sinus relief in Manasquan, NJ & Toms River, NJ is the first step of ridding yourself of sinus infection symptoms.
