Sinusitis [Abx tx]
The sinuses are air-filled spaces within the bones of the face. They connect to the inside of the nose. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the tissue lining the sinus cavity. Sinus inflammation can occur during a cold or hay-fever (allergies to pollens and other particles in the air) and cause symptoms of sinus congestion and fullness. A sinus infection causes fever, headache and facial pain. There is usually green or yellow drainage from the nose or into the back of the throat (post-nasal drip). Antibiotics are prescribed to treat this condition.
