Sinusitis is a common condition involving inflammation or swelling of the tissue lining the sinuses. Healthy sinuses are filled with air, but when they become blocked and filled with fluid, bacteria can grow and cause infection. Symptoms include facial pain and pressure, nasal congestion, headache, thick nasal discharge, reduced sense of smell, and post-nasal drip. The condition may be acute or chronic and recurrent.
In Ayurveda, sinusitis is correlated with Pinasa / Dushta Pratishyaya, involving the aggravation of Kapha and Vata dosha and accumulation in the channels of the head.
