What Conditions Need Sinus Surgery?

Mild seasonal allergies or sensitivity to dust are usually not serious enough conditions for surgery. However, you won’t know for sure unless you speak with an ENT specialist.

Below are a few common chronic conditions that usually benefit from a sinus procedure.

Nasal Polyps

A nasal polyp is a non-cancerous growth inside your nose or along your sinuses. While specialists aren’t exactly sure what causes these growths, theories suggest they emerge from chronic allergies or inflammation.

Larger polyps sometimes block the nose, making it difficult to smell or causing facial pain. Surgery can remove these growths to eliminate the blockage.

Sinus Trauma

If you injured your nose or experienced tissue damage, you may experience sinus trauma. Surgery is a common solution for sinus trauma to rebuild your nose and restore any lost tissue or bone.

Chronic Sinusitis

When your sinuses are stuffy and inflamed for at least three months, you may have chronic sinusitis. This condition causes headaches, difficulty breathing, and stubborn inflammation.

Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (or FESS) is one of the solutions we offer to treat severe or chronic sinusitis.

Is Sinus Surgery a Major Surgery?

Whether or not your sinus procedure is major or minor depends on the severity. Nasal trauma that needs to replace bone may require deeper work, while some forms of sinusitis only require minor surgery.

Sinus implants are one of many surgical options to provide long-lasting relief. Many treatments, such as Balloon Sinuplasty, are minimally invasive.

What are Sinus Implants?

A sinus implant is a small supplement used after surgery for chronic sinusitis. It uses a specialized spring to keep the sinus open and apply gradual anti-inflammatory medication to the sinus lining.

We offer a PROPEL sinus implant for patients with a history of polyps or stubborn symptoms that don’t lessen after four months. It also doesn’t require removal and dissolves naturally. The implant helps reduce post-surgery complications such as scarring and infection.
