Pterygoid sinusitis is divided into acute pterygoid sinusitis and chronic pterygoid sinusitis, which can be cured by standardized medication or surgery, but it is difficult to be eradicated and can occur again.
1. Acute pteroid sinusitis: commonly used drugs include nasal glucocorticosteroids, antibiotics, nasal decongestants, mucus promoters and so on.
(1) Nasal glucocorticoids: for example, mometasone furoate nasal spray, used to regulate immune function and control inflammation.
(2) Antibiotics: e.g. penicillin for controlling inflammation.
(3) Nasal decongestants: e.g. ephedrine, to reduce nasal congestion and relieve symptoms of nasal congestion.
(4) Mucus-promoting agents: such as myrtle oil, used to promote the discharge of nasal secretions.
2. Chronic pterygoid sinusitis: treatment methods include medication and surgery.
(1) Drug treatment: antibiotics, corticosteroids, etc.. Antibiotics such as azithromycin are used to inhibit bacterial growth and reproduction; corticosteroids such as glucocorticoids are used to reduce the mucosal edema of the pterygoid sinus and improve the symptoms of nasal congestion and dyspnea.
(2) Surgical treatment: Nasal endoscopic pterygoid sinus opening can precisely remove the lesion and improve nasal ventilation.
If you are diagnosed with pteroid sinusitis, it is recommended to consult the doctor in time and standardize the treatment under the doctor’s guidance to cure the disease completely.
