Sinusitis - affects the maxillary sinus
The disease is an inflammation of the paranasal sinuses. Most often it is an exacerbation of a common runny nose or as a result of an untreated cold. As a result, severe nasal congestion, inflammation and pus in the sinuses appear.
If you notice a loss of smell, fever and pain in the nose and temples, consult a doctor immediately. Poorly treated sinusitis will go into a purulent and chronic stage, which is much more difficult to treat. Moreover, the development of other serious diseases is possible.
Frontitis - frontal sinus
It is a type of sinusitis that affects the frontal sinuses. Of all types of disease, the course is the most difficult. The causes are almost the same as those that lead to sinusitis, but the symptoms are usually more severe.
The main ones are pain and swelling in the nose and eyes. They usually worsen when bending over, during sleep or active work. The remaining signs of the disease are similar to those observed with sinusitis.
If frontal sinusitis is not treated, it can develop into more serious diseases, including meningitis. This means that if not properly treated, the disease can cause a life-threatening disease.
Ethmoiditis - the cells of the ethmoid sinus become inflamed
Characterized by inflammation of the ethmoid sinus, which is part of the front part of the skull. Due to the close proximity of important structures - the orbits, ethmoid arteries and cranial fossa, complications of ethmoiditis are fraught with serious consequences.
The causes of the disease are the same as for other sinusitis. The main symptoms include pain in the root of the nose, which does not stop even after taking analgesics. In particularly difficult cases, vision decreases, temperature rises and swelling around the eyes appears.
Sphenoiditis – sphenoid sinus
The causes and symptoms are almost the same as the previous case. With inflammation of the sphenoid sinus, deep pain appears in the back of the head and eye sockets, and temporary vision loss is possible.
