Ethmoiditis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Ethmoiditis is inflammation of the ethmoid sinuses, the cavities located between the eyes and the upper part of the nose. It is a type of sinusitis and may occur on its own or alongside other nasal conditions.
Common causes: respiratory tract infections, allergies, and processes that block the drainage of the sinuses.
Frequent symptoms: pain or pressure between the eyes, nasal congestion, discharge, headache, and sometimes swelling around the eyes.
Which specialist treats it? The otolaryngologist examines the nose and sinuses; the general practitioner is usually the first point of contact. If you have persistent facial pain, eye swelling, or symptoms that do not improve, it is wise to seek a professional evaluation.
