The main causes of sinusitis
Sinusitis most often occurs due to infectious diseases or anatomical features of the nose.
The main contributing factors are:
- Viral and bacterial infections - complications of acute respiratory viral infections, influenza, measles, scarlet fever.
- Chronic rhinitis - long-term inflammation of the mucous membrane contributes to the development of sinusitis.
- A deviated nasal septum - complicates the natural outflow of mucus.
- Allergy - provokes swelling of the mucous membrane and nasal congestion.
- Weakened immunity - increases the risk of infection.
- Dental diseases - caries and inflammation of the upper roots can cause sinusitis.
