Resisting Chronic Sinus Infection
by: Paul Hood
Sinus infections that have graduated to the chronic stage deserve
the honor of being treated with the right type of antibiotic.
Sinus problems may be caused by a number of different factors
which include environmental and food allergies (allergic sinusitis),
chronic sinus infection, and chronic colds. This problem is further
aggravated if the sinuses get plugged trapping mucus inside which
serve as breeding grounds for harmful microorganisms like bacteria.
The usual symptoms of acute sinusitis are nasal congestion, green
nasal phlegm, facial/dental pain, eye pain, headache, and a cough
at night. Some may also complain of fever, feeling ill, bad breath
and a sore throat.
There abound a great may antibiotics designed for every illness
known to man. With this multitude, you may sometimes get the wrong
type and this may cause your infection grow from chronic to more
chronic or “chronicer” if there is such a word.
Sinus infections have different causes and determining this cause
may not be that easy but it is required for the physician to prescribe
the right kind of antibiotic. If you have been given an antibiotic
and your sinusitis has not responded to it, then you might have
been given the wrong antibiotic. You may choose to ask another
doctor’s opinion or try another kind of treatment.
A danger in taking the wrong antibiotic is developing resistance
to this medicine. Antibiotic resistance has grown to be a major
health threat making it very important to be accurately diagnosed
by a competent doctor. It may sometimes be difficult for physicians
to give the best prescription for your condition so it would be
best to give them all the help they can get. You have much at
stake and giving Doc all he needs to know will improve chances
of you being given the right antibiotic.
