Sinusitis is a medical condition which involves inflammation of the mucous membranes lining the sinuses in and around the face. Sinusitis can be either acute or chronic, out of which chronic sinusitis can prove to be a frustrating experience for affected individuals. The modern management of this condition involves the use of anti- allergic medications, antibiotics if required, and lastly, surgery if no improvement is observed.
Ayurvedic herbal treatment for sinusitis is aimed at treating the inflammation in the sinuses, treating infection if present, treating the symptoms of fever and pain, as well as improving the resistance of the affected individual in order to bring about an early remission and also prevent a recurrence of the condition. Ayurvedic herbal medicines which have a specific action on the respiratory mucosa and especially the mucosa of the nose and throat are used to treat sinusitis. These medicines reduce the inflammation and congestion in the nose, the throat, as well as all the sinuses in and around the face. These medicines also reduce collection of mucous and pus in the sinuses and ensured adequate drainage from the sinuses so as to clear the congestion present.
Ayurvedic herbal medicines which have a specific action on the respiratory mucosa and which strengthen the mucosa and prevent repeated bouts of inflammation, congestion and infection are used in high doses for the treatment of sinusitis. Most individuals affected with sinusitis also require treatment with Ayurvedic herbal immunomodulatory agents so as to improve the general immune status and prevent frequent allergic reactions or respiratory infections. Depending upon the severity of sinusitis and the acute or chronic stage, individuals affected with sinusitis require treatment for periods ranging from two weeks to four months, in order to get a complete cure from the condition. Treatment can then be continued with a reduced dose and a reduced frequency so as to maintain the therapy in order to prevent a recurrence of the condition.
Ayurvedic herbal treatment can bring about a dramatic improvement in individuals affected with sinusitis and can be used specifically to clear this condition completely.
