一、鼻窦炎的定义与分类
noses and sinuses are small, air-filled cavities within the skull that help to warm, humidify, and filter the air we breathe. When these cavities become inflamed or infected, it is called sinusitis or rhinosinusitis. This condition can be acute or chronic.
二、鼻窦炎的主要症状
Symptoms of sinusitis include a runny nose with thick yellow or green discharge, facial pain and pressure around the eyes and cheeks (especially in the forehead), headaches that worsen when bending forward, loss of smell and taste. In some cases there may be fever.
三、鼻窦炎的原因
There are several factors which contribute to developing sinusitis. These include allergies like hay fever; respiratory infections such as colds; structural problems in the nasal passages (like deviated septum); exposure to pollutants in tobacco smoke; fungal infections; bacterial infections.
四、呼吸道疾病与鼻窦炎关系
The relationship between respiratory diseases like bronchial asthma and allergic rhinitis on one hand and sinusitis on the other is significant. Many people with respiratory diseases have also experienced episodes of sinusitis.
五、自我检查和初步诊断
If you suspect you might have developed a case of sinusitis then it's important to monitor your symptoms closely for any signs of worsening conditions like increased pain, high fever etc., which may indicate complications that require medical attention promptly.
