Hi,
Thanks for writing to us,

Sinuses are small air-filled spaces in the skull that are ventilated through small openings situated in our nostril. When these openings get blocked, the sinuses tend to start secreting mucus and eventually get infected. Recurrent sinusitis maybe due to many causes like deviated nasal septum or polyp or allergies etc. These need to be investigated. There can be a permanent cure in many causes. It will depend on the cause of your recurrence. To start with, an x-ray sinus will be useful to the doctor to find out the cause. Visit an ENT surgeon at the earliest.

Hope this helps,
Dr A Rao
