Condition

Sinusitis

Inflammation of the sinuses causing facial pressure, congestion, and nasal discharge — usually viral and self-limiting.

Some causes of sinusitis need medical care, not self-treatment. Seek help for any of these:

  • Severe headache, swelling/redness around the eye, vision changes, or confusion — seek urgent care.
  • Symptoms beyond ~10 days or high fever (possible bacterial infection).
