What is Sinusitis Treatment?

Sinusitis usually follows a cold and usually resolves without antibiotics. When it drags on, keeps coming back, or the pain is severe and one-sided, it is worth having someone look properly.

The pharmacist will go through your symptoms and how long they have lasted, and set out what will actually help, whether that is a prescription, a change to what you are already using, or a referral.
