Sinusitis due to weather changes
----Thousands of patients suffer from recurrent seasonal sinusitis
In particular, herbalist Tuan recommends that people with sensitive and allergic terrain are more susceptible to seasonal sinusitis. Specifically, doctors divide the disease into the 2 most common levels that patients often encounter:
Cyclical (seasonal) allergic sinusitis
This form of sinusitis often recurs suddenly at the beginning of the hot, cold or humid season, symptoms of sinusitis flare up when it is time to change the season. Symptoms such as runny nose, runny nose, headache, frontal sinus pain, ... also appear cyclically, most often in the early morning and when just waking up.
Normally, each recurrent seasonal sinusitis cycle will last from 7 days - 1 month or even more until the weather of that season stabilizes, affecting their quality of life. Patients have difficulty communicating, working and are at risk of facing many dangerous complications if indifferent, so that the disease lasts forever.
---Non-cyclic allergic sinusitis
In this form of disease, the symptoms are similar to common sinusitis in general, without periodic recurrence. But patients can have recurrent sinusitis every time the weather changes or exposure to environmental factors that are difficult to prevent in advance.
To answer the question "Is seasonal sinusitis dangerous?", the physician said it was very dangerous. In fact, many sick people are often subjective, letting the disease go away on its own when the season is over. Gradually, prolonged seasonal sinusitis leads to many harmful complications related to the respiratory system, eyes, brain or ear - throat,... However, there are still many people who are indifferent and not proactive. prevent the risk of causing seasonal sinusitis.
--Symptoms of cold weather sinusitis - A series of signs that CANNOT be ignored
As mentioned above, this is a common form of allergic rhinitis that occurs when the weather changes seasons. When the temperature and humidity factors change, the sudden increase - decrease will cause the patient to experience some typical symptoms such as:
Nasal congestion: The patient may have a stuffy nose in one or both sides, corresponding to sinusitis 1 or inflammation of both.
Runny nose (nasal discharge): This is a typical symptom that all people with sinusitis experience. Nasal discharge can flow down the nose first or down the throat, making the patient often sobbing, spitting up very uncomfortable, even complications to pharyngitis. In case of severe sinusitis, the sinus fluid turns green, milky, foul-smelling,...
Headache: Symptoms of seasonal sinusitis headache can appear at certain hours such as frontal sinusitis or headache at 10-12 o'clock, ethmoid sinusitis and sphenoid sinus pain again at night...
Loss of smell: Chronic chronic sinusitis can affect your sense of smell. Herbalist Tuan said that many patients who came to see him had "lost their smell" for several years because they did not promptly treat sinusitis when the season changed.
--Sinus pain, runny nose are common symptoms that most people with seasonal sinusitis have
On the other hand, some people may have manifestations such as atopic dermatitis, urticaria, asthma. Because patients with atopic allergies will be closely related to seasonal allergic sinusitis, the appearance of the above symptoms is normal. Ideally, when experiencing seasonal sinusitis, people should see a doctor immediately.
