Sinus Surgery
Endoscopic sinus surgery - also called endoscopy or sinoscopy - is a procedure used to remove blockages in the sinuses. These blockages cause sinusitis, a condition in which the sinuses swell and become clogged, causing pain and impaired breathing. The procedure can relieve nasal blockages, relieve facial pain, improve breathing and improve sense of smell and taste. Acute sinusitis is most commonly caused by common cold. Common causes of acute sinusitis are bacteria, allergens and fungal infections.
