Introduction
Sinus surgery is a medical procedure that is performed on the sinus and will not respond to medical treatments or other treatments. It enables the nasal sinus to drain better, get better airflow, and therefore help to beat congestion, infections, and discomfort. Nasopharyngeal endoscopy is one of the most advanced techniques that is used in sinus surgery for examination as well as treatment of the affected areas with precision. Chronic sinus patients may have conditions such as headaches, facial pain, and problems breathing in that mouth that coincide with blockage of the nasal sinus. The diagnosis and therapy of these diseases are achieved using nasopharyngeal endoscopy. People with sinus problems can enjoy long-term relief and enhance nasal sinus function by selecting sinus surgery which comes as minimally invasive nasopharyngeal endoscopy techniques.

-
A modern treatment of sinus problems uses a small balloon that is inserted into the nasal sinus and inflated to widen the sinus passages. It also is less invasive and recovery time is shorter.
-
For very severe cases, open surgery will be necessary to remove damaged tissue in the nasal sinus and to create proper airflow.
-
Real-time imaging of the sinus and the rest of the body so the doctor can precisely target and treat sinus blockages to the millimeter.

For people with chronic sinus problems, corticosteroid injections are used to reduce inflammation and improve nasal sinus function.
