Sinus problems and nasal obstruction can significantly impact your quality of life. The Specialists at our centre have extensive experience in treating the array of nasal and sinus disorders. Treatment options include medical management and nonsurgical therapy, minimally invasive in-office Balloon Sinuplasty (BSP), functional nasal reconstruction (FNR) as well as functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS). Your sinus disorder does not have to impact your quality of life any longer.
Allergies are a hyperactive inflammatory response by your own body to substances (called allergens) normally found in the environment. Primarily this involves airborne allergens inhaled via the nose and mouth, such as dust, which then enter our respiratory tract.
The inflammation causes tissue swelling in the nose, throat, and lungs, often resulting in an increased predisposition to infection, particularly recurring acute sinusitis or even chronic sinusitis.
If you’ve experienced this cyclic pattern of upper respiratory infections, or suffer from chronic baseline allergy symptoms such as nasal congestion, runny nose or post nasal drip, itchy nose, eyes, ears, headaches, sneezing, and /or puffy eyes (giving you that always tired look), it is highly likely you have allergies.
