Thank you,W.Butler

If the CT scan shows sinusitis, then a proper treatment should be taken to cure sinusitis. Initially a course of antibiotics along with anti histamines and anti inflammatory agents to be taken for 7 to 10 days. If this is not helping then surgery can be planned to eras the disease. endoscopic sinus surgery can be done to relieve the problems.
