Suggest Treatment For Sinus Infection

Hi, I have in the past 2/3months had a bad sinus infection, I have had 3 different antibiotics and 2 different nasal sprays, Iam not one bit better only seem to be getting worse, the thing is it is only my right side/nostril that is affected, I can't smell or taste properly, my right eye streams cconstantly and I have bad throbbing pressure in my right nostril and cheekbone and behind my right eye, when u blow my nose to try clear it I often get really big pieces of what I would describe as fleshy material with little veins if blood, then I instantly become completely blocked once again on the right side, I then suddenly get dripping from my right nostril which can be quite bad, its really getting me down now as its been going on so long and I'm not able to taste my food.

ENT Specialist 's  Response


Hi,

Welcome to HCM,

I had gone through your question and understand your concerns.

With such presentation, I would perform ent examination, nasal endoscopy, blood test( to rule out allergic rhinitis, polyp). if necessary ct scan of para nasal sinuses. I recommend you to see an ent surgeon. he/ she wil know the evaluation.


Hope, I have answered your query, all the best, take care.
