Rhinology (Nose & Sinus)

Rhinology treats diseases of the nose and sinuses. Long-standing blocked nose, facial pressure, reduced smell and thick discharge may point to chronic sinusitis, polyps or a deviated septum.

Medicines, nasal sprays, saline rinses and allergy control help many people, and endoscopic surgery is used for those who do not improve. Frequent or heavy nosebleeds should be investigated.
