Sinusitis is often though of an infection, but that is not always true. Even if it is an infection, it is often viral and not bacterial. Sinusitis can result from a flare of allergies and is a result of the sinuses not functioning properly due to a blockage in the sinuses. Sinus conditions are often caused by an allergic reaction or a recent upper respiratory illness, and typically produce symptoms similar to the common cold. Symptoms of sinusitus include: sinus pressure / pain, fever, loss of sense of smell, thick drainage, teeth pain

Our specialists at Oak Brook work closely with patients to determine the underlying cause of their sinus conditions, and develop a treatment plan that suits their needs.
