Sinusitis Questions

Asked for male, 31 years old from Delhi

Report

I am female age 31, suffering from pain in right side of my face. I feel the pain is their in upper teeth but sometime it feels it's everywhere in right side of face. I went to dentist and got xray and opg and dentist told me their is no issue in any teeth. And asked me to consult ent. I went to ent doctor near my place and I was treated for neural pain and it did not helped then I was treated for sinus and was asked to get an ct scan done. Today I got my ct scan and it did not show any abnormalities so ent doctor suggested the neural pain medicine again, along with calcium medicine. Below is findings of ct scan: ct of paranasal sinuses & face 3 mm contiguous coronal sections with feed of 8 mm were acquired through paranasal sinuses without intravenous contrast findings: frontal sinuses, both maxillary sinuses, anterior and posterior ethmoidal sinuses on both sides as well as sphenoidal sinuses are normal translucency. No evidence of any air fluid level, polyp or wall erosion is seen. Osteomental complex on both sides appear normal. Nasal septum appears to be deviated towards left side. Pneumatization of right middle turbinate is seen suggestive of concha bullosa. Rest of the visualized face also appear normal. Advice: clinical correlation. Thanks.

Thanks doctor, but consulting a psychiatrist won't help. My main fear is that do we actually have n fowleri amoeba present in water bodies in india, especially underground water. Next can one simply get it my washing face or mere sniffing in a drop while bathing as I found such a concern on quora. My main concern is that even if present in a water body can it go so easily in sinus cavity or one has to force it up like by cleansing sinus, aggressively breathing in or diving/swimming. I had read somewhere that azithromycin is also used to treat it and since once symptoms of pam appear, it is nearly always fatal, I worry using the underground water now, and take the tablets. So does it actually help or I am risking myself for side effects unnecessarily as I also take dilzem cd 120 for hypertension. I know self medication is bad and do not want to take it unless prescribed too. Please just let me know in which situation can the amoeba enter the brain or pose a threat or if in india we don't have this amoeba present in underground water usually as so many people use nal, jet pumps. I had many paid and non paid consultations, I just got a no, it us not caused like that and it is not common in india. Just a bit elaborate reassurance from an experienced doctor will help. And I won't ask queries about this topic again then.

Dear lybrate-user ji
greetings!
your ct brain shows that as far as your brain and other central nervous system is concerned it is perfectly normal. The only thing of concern are the maxillary sinuses (cheek bone sinuses) that have swelled up due to some infection so it is holding back the mucous secretion. Actually it has to be drained properly in the nose.
So, first things first:
1. You are fine except some sinusitis of cheek side.
2. Take steam inhalation
3. If there is...more

1. Do saline gargles daily.
2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also.
3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected.
4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably i...more

Dear lybrate-user
frequent blowing of nostrils can cause tear in the turbinates (read about barotrauma of turbinates). Sinusitis can be treated by some herbs and also some simple methods in ayurveda.
You need to work on your immunity and some lifestyle changes can really help you in a great deal.
To know more, kindly do come in for a telecon with me.
Have a nice day!
