Chronic Sinusitis and Is Surgery needed?
He's having chronic sinusitis with heavy runny nose and blocked air passage. Transparent watery runny nose. Feels like swelling around the nose. In CT scan of PNS report it shows DNS towards right, bilateral chronic pan sinusitis, blocked bilateral OMU with widened left OMU, hyper-trophy of left superior and inferior turbinate. I would like to understand : Is surgery the only option there for him ? as currently its difficult to manage with symptoms. Also is there any SOS medication which can help in reliving heavy runny nose?? Currently he's using Nasivion spray and montair-fx but the recovery duration is too much making it difficult to even sleep at night.
Kindly advice.
