Chronic sinusitis is a condition in which the sinuses inside our skull become inflamed for months and years together. This condition can considerably reduce ones quality of life. Patients suffering from chronic Sinusitis complain of difficulty in breathing from nose, headaches, pain and tenderness in the face.
Yellow greenish discharges may also be present from the nose and also from the back of the throat. In most cases, this kind of chronic inflammation in the sinuses is caused by underlying allergic reactions to pollen, pet dander, and dust mites, smoke etc. Homeopathic treatment of chronic sinusitis is very effective and has a strong edge over the conventional treatments. This is because homeopathic medicines along with the treatment of sinusitis cure the underlying allergies too. Thus preventing the recurrence of inflammation in sinuses.
Allergy tops the cause-list for chronic and recurrent sinusitis. Other reasons that trigger inflammation in the sinuses are infections like flu, common colds etc. ; blockages in the nose caused by a deviated nasal septum ,polyps and reaction to fungus in air. Sinuses are hollow spaces in our skull (bony structure of the head and the face). There are four pairs of sinuses in our skull. Sinusitis is the inflammation of one or more of these hollow spaces in the skull. These spaces are linked with the nose for free exchange of air by an opening in the nose. It is usually when this opening gets blocked by swelling in the nose due to common cold or allergies that the symptoms of sinusitis develop.
Symptoms of Chronic sinusitis resemble those of acute sinusitis, but usually last much longer and cause more fatigue. The main symptoms of chronic sinusitis are pain in the face and pressure in the areas of forehead, temples, cheeks, and nose and behind the eyes, discharge of a thick yellow or greenish discharge from the nose or down the back of the throat, obstructed and difficult breathing through the nose, diminished sense of smell or taste, frequent Headache (especially in morning), Teeth pain, Fatigue, Cough, and Sore throat.
As homeopathy is a symptom based system of medicine, the prescription is based upon the symptoms presented by the patient. Many symptomatic factors determine the choice of remedy .i.e. the type of discharges from the nose and throat, the sinus that is involved and other factors like the time of the year when this problem increases also its relation to weather. The main homeopathic medicines used for treating chronic sinusitis are Hydrastis, kali bichrome, Silicea and Merc Sol. Luffa Opercula requires a special mention for treating allergies and sinusitis both. Lemna Minor works well in cases where the sinusitis is complicated by nasal polyps.
At times the treatment of underlying allergy may also require a totally different set of medicines. Prescription based on the detailed study of the patient’s physical and mental makeup (which is also called as constitutional prescribing) is at times required to cure the allergy from the base.

Have been battling chronic sinusitis for over 25 years. Over that time, I’ve had 8 sinus surgeries. The cultures always came back with pseudomonas. I was given oral antibiotics until pseudomonas became resistant to all of them. I have been on four courses of IV antibiotics. For the past 2 years, I have been flushing with a saline so,tion with a few drops of bleach. My sinuses look almost clear on examination, but I still am nauseous and have green discharge. No antibiotics.

Dear Doctor Sharma Gaaru,
I have been suffering from severe head ache i.e. at middle of the head and starting point of the nose between eyes, eyes pain and neck pain. I have taken pain killers (allopathy) for several years and I consulted eye specialists and taken spectacles. Apart from the above, even I have checked for Blood Pressure and for certain time, I consumed tablets for BP, however, on suggestion of one doctor I have taken CT scan of head and it was revealed that I have been suffering from sinusitis. This head ache due to sinus is very severe and the pain killers also not working properly (Combiflam, Dart, Aceclofenac Sodium with paracetamol and Diclofenac Sodium with paracetamol etc).
I pray you please suggest me a homeopathic medicine and potency which effectively works and relieve me from this terrible pain.
Thank you Sir,
Krishna Mohan
