The cilia beats the secretions towards the cavity opening and to the noae. A sinus infections develops when this natural process of clearance is impaired Moat sinus infections in children originate in the nose. A good example is the common cold Other factors that predispose children to sinusitis include allergies, enlarged adenoids, nasal polype and cigarette exposure Most children with sinusitis present with a rututy noae (yellow or green mucous). cough and sometimes an ear infections. Unlike adults, children do not usually have headache, fecial pain or fever. Of course, the common cold can present with the same symptoms, however, if cold symptoms last for more than ten to fourteen days, it can be assumed that a sinus infection has developed "f ENT physicians suggesi thai topic I decongestants. such as Neo I Synephrwe and Aim. can be very I effective These Aouki not be used I for more than three to Ave days in a I row Another safe medication 1 often I recommend is Saline nose drops. I There is some controversy a* to I whether decongestants and I antihistamines taken by mouth make I a difference in the treatment of I sinusitis Occasiooaily you have a patient I doesn't respond to maximal medical treatment. These children may require surgery to help open up the opening of the sinus cavities. This sugery is called functional endoscopic sinus surgery and is now the most widely accepted technique for surgical management of chronic sinusitis in children As parents we should remember that while luds can get sinus infections, every time the nose runs it is probably not sinusitis. Usually it is the common cold virus or allergic rhinitis When these symptoms last more than ten to fourteen days, however, it probably is sinusitis and the patient needs to see ? the doctor. That's all oa sinusitis Take care and we'll talk strain next week! Report to the Lumbee Tribe From the Chairman bv Dr. Daltoa P. Broolu.
