Chiropractic and Sinusitis
When mucus excessively fills the air cavities, what we know as sinusitis occurs.
Sinusitis is quite common. It usually appears when we have a cold and disappears at the same time. But if the drainage is blocked, pressure increases and can cause pain, general discomfort, headache, and inflammation around the eyes and ears. Jaw pain, chills, fever, dizziness, loss of appetite, photophobia, bad breath, nausea, and even depression.
Causes of Sinusitis
Anything that irritates the sensitive mucous membranes can be a contributing factor to the onset of sinusitis; dust, mold, pollen, fumes, viruses, and bacteria, etc.
Those who suffer from allergies often have symptoms of sinusitis because many allergens irritate the nasal cavities. Other less common causes of sinusitis include bone growth, nasal polyps, deviated nasal septum, facial injuries, tumors, or diseases of the upper teeth.
Bacteria and viruses only grow when conditions are ideal. They are the result of a bodily dysfunction.
The prototype medical treatment for sinusitis and rhinitis usually involves drainage and treatment with decongestants, antibiotics, and antihistamines.
Pharmacies are filled with all kinds of remedies for sinusitis. This treatment is controversial as medications may relieve nasal congestion but have limited effects on the nasal or paranasal sinuses and can cause side effects.
Chiropractic and Sinusitis
Chiropractic, by relieving the tension exerted on the nervous system and the body’s structure, helps the body function more efficiently. Additionally, chiropractic care can enhance the ability for the bones of the skull to move more freely and “breathe,” allowing the body’s fluids to drain without interference.
Chiropractors have been observing the beneficial effects of spinal treatment on the nervous, immune, and respiratory systems for decades.
