The sinuses are cavities around the nose, the total number of which is about 8-10, surrounded by bone on all four sides. Inflammation of the mucous membrane covering these spaces can lead to severe pain.

Sinus therapy is treated with medical and surgical methods, thanks to the developing technological devices, and recovery is achieved in a short time.
The sinus cavities open into the area called the “ostiomeatal complex” in the nose. This region is one of the narrowest parts of the nose in terms of structure. It is also directly affected by infections in the nose. The sinuses produce 0.5-1 liter of secretion every day.

This secretion is swept into holes called “ostium” by tiny hairs called “cilia”, which are invisible to the eye on the sinus mucosa. The secretion plays a major role in the body’s immunity.

However, if the sinus door to the nose is closed due to a problem in the ostiomeatal complex, the secretion cannot be expelled and accumulates inside. For this reason, the movement of the cilia stops, and sinusitis occurs as an environment in which microbes and viruses can easily reproduce.
