Patient's question:
I took my daughter to the hospital for a check-up a few weeks ago, and she was diagnosed with pediatric sinusitis. However, we had not noticed it before. I would like to ask what are the symptoms and treatments for pediatric sinusitis? How can pediatric sinusitis be effectively treated?Doctor's answer:
Infants and young children with sinusitis typically require a head CT scan for diagnosis. It is an inflammatory condition that can be treated with oral anti-inflammatory medications. Additionally, it is important to follow a light diet and avoid spicy and irritating foods. If there is an increase in purulent secretions, saline can be used for local cleaning, and antibiotic ointment can be applied. Wishing you good health.
