Sinus Specialist Services in Auckland

While sinus issues can be a nuisance, they may indicate a larger underlying cause.
At ENT Specialist Clinic, our board-certified ear, nose, and throat specialist can diagnose and treat conditions affecting the nose and paranasal sinuses for patients of all ages.
We help patients understand their condition and the proper treatments to alleviate their sinus problems.

What are the Symptoms of a Sinus Infection?

Common symptoms of sinus inflammation, or sinusitis, are:

Acute Sinus Inflammation vs Chronic Sinus Inflammation

Short-term sinus inflammation (or acute sinusitis) is typically caused by a viral infection. If caused by a bacterial infection, antibiotics may be prescribed.
On the other hand, if the sinus inflammation persists for over three months, you may have chronic sinusitis. This can be caused by poor drainage of the sinus, leading to mucus build up and a higher risk of recurring sinus infections.

Treatments by Our Sinus Specialist in Auckland

Treatment for sinus conditions would depend on the cause and severity of symptoms. Common medical management strategies include:

Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS)

Sometimes, surgical intervention may be considered if a patient’s condition fails to respond to medical management.
A common procedure is Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), a minimally invasive procedure conducted through the nostrils.
It involves using a small endoscope equipped with a camera, where the surgeon may widen narrow or obstructed sinus openings to improve sinus drainage and provide long-term relief from sinus-related issues.
