What is sinusitis(resdung)?
Sinusitis is a type of chronic disease that causes by swollen or inflamed lining tissue in the sinus. Sinus is the space inside our nose and head which provides a space for draining of mucus. Swelling of the inner membrane results in difficult breathing through the nose as sinus become blocked and filled with fluids. On the other hand, another similar chronic respiratory disease called allergic rhinitis only happens when you breathe in allergens. Both rhinitis and sinusitis are related to each other, because
allergic rhinitis causes your nose to become blocked, and in turn blocks the sinuses(WHO ,2019).
