Patient's question:
My sister has been crying every day these days. She's not feeling well with her nose and has sinusitis. My mom said it needs to be punctured, which scared her badly. I still want to find some conservative methods that are less painful and acceptable for the child. How to treat pediatric sinusitis effectively?Doctor's answer:
Only 5-year-old preschool children with sinusitis do not need puncture. Moreover, children cannot cooperate, making it impossible to perform puncture. For sinusitis puncture, it refers to simple maxillary sinusitis, and puncture treatment is only considered when conservative treatment is ineffective. If it is acute sinusitis, it is necessary to seek medical attention at the otolaryngology department as soon as possible, and under the guidance of a doctor, standardized and sensitive antibiotics and other medications should be administered for both systemic and local treatment.
