If you have symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis such as nasal congestion, facial heaviness, nasal discharge for long time then CT findings correlate with sinusitis and you need to consider medical or surgical treatment for chronic rhinosinusitis. If you don't have any of nose symptoms then you not worry about CT findings
