Cold, throat pain and cough
My wife suffering from cold, throat pain and cough. I have consulted a doctor and he asked you want to know root cause ans solution then I said yes. He checked the nose & throat then he recommended CT scan for the same( doctor mentioned scanning center only). We underwent the tests he suggested. I don't want to type it here but I am typing. In the evening, while locating the hospital, I could see Lot of bad reviews for his clinic and doctor himself. Hence I decided to post it here for seeking your advice as well before blindly following the other tests he might prescribe on tomorrow. Sorry, If you find these statements are very mean but I am trying to be honest here.
Attached is the observations from The CT scan.
Does these symptoms can be cure by the medicine?? If other tests are required for sure then what are those tests??

As per the ct scan report, there is sinusitis but, would like to see the ct film to see exactly how much infection is there. For her symptoms, she will require antibiotics. Usually doctors suggest a nasal endoscopy also and maybe blood test related to it.
