Post covid
Hi,
I recorded from covid a month back. Now having nasal blockage mostly at night nd early morning.
My ct pns report says :
Sphenoethmoidal sinus mucosal thickening noted.
Frontal & maxillary sinuses mucosa are normal.
Inferior nasal turbinates are enlarged. Nasal mucosa is thick.
Nasal septum is deviated to left.
Nasopharynx mucosa is normal without any mass.
Parapharyngeal spaces are normal without any mass.
Osseous structures of PNS are normal.
No significant abnormality in osteomeatal complex ( Maxillary ostium, infundibulum, uncinate process, hiatus semilunaris, bulla ethmoidalis and middle meatus).
Am I infected with fungus or it is normal sinusitis?
Please advise if I got fungal infection in my spenoethmoidal sinus.?
