Chronic sinusitis is a long-lasting problem with the sinuses, the air-filled spaces behind your nose and eyes. It often involves a buildup of thick, discolored mucus (like a runny nose), which can drip down the back of your throat (postnasal drip). You might also feel a blocked or stuffy nose, making it hard to breathe through your nose.

Other common symptoms include:

• Facial pain and tenderness: This can be around your eyes, cheeks, nose, or forehead.
• Loss of smell and taste: You might notice a decreased ability to smell or taste things.
• Ear pain
• Headache
• Toothaches
• Cough
• Sore throat
• Bad breath
• Fatigue (tiredness)

Chronic sinusitis is similar to acute sinusitis, but the key difference is duration. Acute sinusitis is a short-term infection, often linked to a cold and usually lasting a few days to a couple of weeks. Chronic sinusitis, on the other hand, lasts for at least 12 weeks. You might have several bouts of acute sinusitis before it becomes chronic.

A key difference between the two is fever. Fever is more common with acute sinusitis. Chronic sinusitis usually doesn't involve a fever.

When to See a Doctor:

Even with chronic sinusitis, you should see a doctor if:

• Your symptoms last more than 10 days: This is a good rule of thumb for any type of sinus infection.
• You have symptoms that could signal a more serious problem: These include:
  • Fever
  • Swelling or redness around your eyes
  • Severe headache
  • Swelling on your forehead
  • Confusion
  • Double vision or other changes in vision
  • Stiff neck

These more serious symptoms might indicate a more serious infection or complication. Early diagnosis and treatment are important for preventing further problems.

Chronic sinus infections rarely cause serious problems. However, if the infection spreads, it can lead to complications.

One potential complication is vision problems. If the infection reaches the eye socket, it might affect vision, and in extreme cases, could lead to blindness. This is why it's important to seek treatment promptly if you suspect a sinus infection.

Another, less common, complication is the spread of infection to other parts of the body. A severe sinus infection can sometimes spread to the membranes surrounding the brain and spinal cord. This is called meningitis, and it's a serious condition. The infection can also spread to the bones (osteomyelitis) or the skin (cellulitis), both of which can cause significant health issues. These complications highlight the importance of seeking medical attention for persistent sinus problems.
