That dull, throbbing pressure behind your cheeks. A stuffy nose that never clears. Pain when you bend over. These aren’t just cold symptoms; they’re classic signs of sinusitis.

More Than Just a Cold: What Triggers Sinusitis?

Sinusitis occurs when the air-filled cavities around your nose and forehead (your sinuses) become inflamed and blocked. This traps mucus, allowing bacteria or viruses to multiply, causing pressure, pain, and infection.

When Sinus Trouble Becomes Chronic

If your sinus symptoms last more than 12 weeks or recur multiple times per year, you might be dealing with chronic sinusitis. This condition requires deeper evaluation and often a multi-pronged treatment plan, including allergy testing, imaging, or minor procedures. OBUR Health helps you connect the dots and keeps the care process organized, so you never feel lost or overwhelmed.

Sinusitis FAQs: Let’s Clear the Air

Colds last around 7–10 days. If symptoms like facial pressure, thick nasal discharge, and headaches persist beyond that or worsen, you may have sinusitis.

Yes. With OBUR Health, you can start treatment virtually or opt for an in-home visit for more intensive care. We'll guide you either way.
