What is
sinusitis?
Sinusitis is an inflammation of the
paranasal sinuses, which may or may not
be as a result of infection, from
bacterial, fungal, viral, allergic or
autoimmune issues.
Rhinosinutitis
Newer
classifications of sinusitis refer to
it as rhinosinusitis, taking
into account the thought that
inflammation of the sinuses cannot
occur without some inflammation of the
nose as well (rhinitis).
