Sinusitis is defined as a condition of inflammation
of the paranasal sinuses of which can develop headache as a result of
exposure to a cold or flu virus, or an allergic reaction to pollen,
mold, dust or smoke, etc..Sinusitis affects 37 million people each year.
II. Preventions
Do and do not list
1. Eat more fruits and vegetables
Fruits and vegetable contain measure amount of antioxidants of many
kinds of which prevent the forming of free radicals that can result of
abnormal structures causes of sinusitis such as cysts, polyp, etc. and
protect our body against foreign virus and bacteria invasion cause of
infective and inflammatory cause of sinusitis.(34). In fact, while the
water soluble antioxidants prevent oxidative forning in the cell cytosol
and the blood plasma, the insolvable antioxidants protect cell
membranes from lipid peroxidation. Antioxidants also enhance the immune
system in prevention of the chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) caused by a
failure of the mechanical and immunologic barriers across the nasal
mucosa(35)
2. Allergic effects
Allergy is the over reaction of immune system to harmless substances
after entering our body affecting 1 in every 3 people in the world, as a
result of over production of antibody Immunoglobulin E (IgE) of immune
system in responding to harmless ingredients such as dust, pollution,
alcohol, peanut, shrimp, crayfish, lobster, walnuts, peanuts, soy,
legume, etc., after contacting or eating. In certain people, allergic
effect can be a result of sinusitis as the result of the production of
histamine cause of nasal and sinus membranes to swell resulting of
sinusitis(36). Other such as wood dust is considered as a chronic
irritative agent on the mucous lining of the nose and paranasal
sinuses(39)
3. Improvements in air quality
In the study of A total of 313,982 patients were studied over the 10
calendar years 1997-2006, conducted by Brigham and Women’s Hospital,
Boston, showed that the prevalence of hay fever and sinusitis are
correlated with air quality. Improvements in air quality are associated
with decreased prevalence of both hay fever and sinusitis(37).
Electrostatic filters attached to heating and air conditioning equipment
are helpful in improving air quality.
4. Occupational sinusitis
There are reported that working in the occupation with high risk of
exposure to irritants and sensitizers are increased risk of sinusitis.
if you are working in such environment please dress yourself to the
safety code.(38)
5. Good hygiene
Good hygiene reduce the risk of Bacterial and viral infections causes of sinusitis
6. Avoid foods
Such as Chocolates, milk product of which can cause the production of
thick, viscid mucus in the mucus membrane lining of the nose and
sinuses.
7. Drink a equate amount of water
Dehydration can increase risk of nasal congestion as a result of the blockage of the nasal passages usually due to membranes lining the nose becoming swollen.
8. Get an influenza vaccine each year
Influenza vaccine can reduce the risk of getting cold and flu and the
severity if you get one, thus decreasing the risk of sinusitis.
