Sinus Procedure FAQs
What is Balloon Sinuplasty?
Balloon Sinuplasty is a minimally invasive procedure used to open blocked sinus passages. A small balloon is gently inflated inside the sinus cavity to restore proper drainage and improve breathing.
Is Balloon Sinuplasty painful?
Most patients experience minimal discomfort during the procedure. Because it is minimally invasive, recovery is typically faster compared to traditional sinus surgery.
How long does recovery take?
Many patients return to normal activities within a few days after minimally invasive sinus procedures. Your physician will provide personalized recovery guidelines.
Will sinus treatment help with snoring?
In some cases, snoring may be related to nasal obstruction or sinus issues. Treating these conditions may help improve breathing and reduce snoring.
When should I see a sinus specialist?
If you experience persistent nasal congestion, frequent sinus infections, facial pressure, or breathing problems that do not improve with medication, it may be time to consult a sinus specialist.
