Sinusitis is a common disease, which can be divided into acute and chronic categories, acute purulent sinusitis is mostly secondary to acute rhinitis, with nasal congestion, purulent discharge, and headache as the main characteristics; Chronic purulent sinusitis is often secondary to acute purulent sinusitis, with purulent discharge as the main manifestation, and may be accompanied by nasal congestion, headache, and olfactory disturbances of varying severity. Pay attention to exercise, combine work and rest, dress moderately, breathe more fresh air, avoid dry nose, and do not easily use nasal drops. Timely diagnosis and treatment of nasal lesions, and infection of adjacent lesions should be **.

You may consider taking a look at Chinese medicine, and it is a good choice to take some Na Yuan Oral Liquid or Na Yuan Tablets.

Allergic rhinitis is a manifestation of the body's immune system overreacting to allergens, so it is not as simple as poor resistance. Traditional Chinese medicine generally believes that allergic rhinitis is the result of the overall imbalance of the human body, and allergic rhinitis in traditional Chinese medicine pays more attention to starting from regulating the physique, and achieves the goal of restoring the balance of the human body.

The first thing to do is to identify the allergens and then try to avoid contact with them, for example, try to minimize outdoor activities during the high allergic rhinitis season, and always wear a mask when going out.

Prepare a bowl of saline, then slowly inhale it into the nasal cavity, and then bring the water out like blowing your nose to relieve allergic rhinitis attacks.

10 grams of Xanthium seeds, 15 grams of Xinyi flowers, 10 grams of Angelica dahurica, 2 grams of mint leaves, add an appropriate amount of green onion and white to boil together for 30 40 minutes, drink as tea, once a day, with local nasal spray for about a week can improve allergic rhinitis.

Rhinitis and sinusitis can be distinguished from the inside of the nose. The nasal cavity is a small ventilated space in the nostrils that is covered by the nasal mucosa. If there are symptoms of an inflammatory disease in this area, it is called rhinitis.

The location of sinusitis is different from the location of rhinitis. Sinuses refer to the nasal cavity, skull, etc. enclosure of the area.

There are four zones in total.

If the drug does not work for sinusitis, surgery can only be used, and it needs to be controlled as soon as possible, because when the patient's inflammation continues to worsen, or causes the appearance of nasal polyps, it will lead to an increase in difficulty and a rise in cost. At present, the common surgical method is minimally invasive nasal endoscopic sinus surgery, which preserves the normal tissues of the patient's nasal cavity and sinuses to the greatest extent under the premise of resecting irreversible lesions, and reduces additional harm to the patient. In life, we often see the existence of rhinitis and sinusitis, and many people will confuse these two diseases, thinking that this is a disease, and we must prescribe the right medicine, so we must know what disease we are, so we must grasp what is the difference between rhinitis and sinusitis.

In our daily life, rhinitis and sinusitis are often a disease, and many people will confuse these two diseases together, thinking that rhinitis and sinusitis are diseases, for our own health, we must learn to distinguish between these two diseases, so that we can prescribe the right medicine and let ourselves get health protection.

1. The difference between rhinitis and sinusitis is that the location of the inflammation is different. From an anatomical point of view, the nasal cavity is a ventilatory space between the anterior and posterior nostrils, and the nasal mucosa is covered by the nasal mucosa, and the inflammation of the nasal mucosa is rhinitis. Sinusitis is the location of the disease around the nasal cavity, the air-containing cavities in the skull and facial bones, the left and right are symmetrical, there are a total of 4 pairs, each sinus is connected with a sinus mouth of the nasal cavity, the nasal mucosa and the mucosa in the sinuses continue to each other, sinusitis is also the main problem of swelling and inflammation of the mucosa in the cavity.

2. It should also be noted that the clinical manifestations of rhinitis and sinusitis are different. In the early stage of acute rhinitis, the whole body is sore, the nose and nasopharynx appear dry and burning, the nasal mucosa is congested and dry, nasal congestion can occur in the acute stage, the secretions of the nose can also increase, and the obliterated nasal voice can be presented after speaking, and the patient's sense of smell will also be reduced, and the nasal cavity is full of viscous purulent secretions, which can be transformed into purulent. There are also different degrees of headache and fever all over the body.

After the recovery period of the disease, the patient's nasal congestion symptoms will also be reduced.

Rhinitis is divided into acute rhinitis, chronic rhinitis and allergic rhinitis, acute rhinitis can appear burning or dryness in the nose, sneezing, followed by nasal congestion, watery nasal discharge, loss of smell and other symptoms. Secondary bacterial infection may become mucous or purulent nasal discharge, which is not large. Chronic rhinitis is characterized by nasal congestion and increased nasal discharge, and can also be accompanied by symptoms such as obliterant nasal voice and loss of smell.

The four typical symptoms of allergic rhinitis are nasal itching, nasal congestion, sneezing, and runny nose, while sinusitis is also divided into acute sinusitis and chronic sinusitis.

If it is the former, you will have a runny nose or nosebleeds. If it's the latter, you'll feel like you're out of breath when it's cold. If it is the former, you should drink some red bean barley tea. If it's the latter, you should rest more.
