Sinusitis and Homeopathy … Dr. Vikas Sharma
THAT a cold is just a simple disease and would pass away without causing any harm is a misconception. Many a times this simple cold gets converted into a chronic disorder. Sinusitis is an acute or chronic inflammation of the nasal sinuses-hollow cavities within the cheekbones found around the eyes and behind the nose.
The primary functions of these sinuses are to warm, moisten and filter the air in the nasal cavity. They also play a role in our ability to vocalise certain sounds.
Sinusitis, which is common in winter, may last for months or years if inadequately treated. It can affect the nose, eyes or middle ear, and may be indicated by profuse, thick, coloured nasal drainage, bad-tasting post-nasal drip, cough, head congestion and an accompanying headache. Symptoms may also include a plugged-up nose, a feeling of facial swelling, toothache, constant tiredness, and occasionally fever.
There are two types of sinusitis. Acute sinusitis, is often caused by a bacterial infection and usually develops as a complication five to 10 days after the first symptoms of a respiratory infection such as the common cold.
Then there is chronic sinusitis, which may also be caused by bacterial infection. Although colds are the most common cause for acute sinusitis, those with allergies may also be predisposed to develop this problem.
As always, an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. To avoid developing sinusitis during a cold or allergy attack, keep your sinuses clear by:

I’ve had a chronic sinus problem for more than 10 years.
Last year I started having what turned out to be vasculitus. Symptoms where odd. Bad headache, warm rash on lower legs(vasculitus area) and flu like symptoms of fever and chills. typical to last 24-36 hours and then fine. Problem was I was getting them every month and then every 2 weeks.
After batteries of tests – no solution.
final dermatologist said let’s treat since only 50% ever get solved.
I took colchicine and haven’t had a problem since – only a few months now.
Here’s the question.
What was funny is that when I took colchicine my sinus problems went away.
before I couldn’t sleep/lie down for more than 2-3 hours before getting severely impacted sinuses, now I can sleep pretty much without problems. I still have some issues, however my questions is why colchicine – used mainly for gout can have such an impact on my sinuses.
I quit drinking over 2 years ago so I don’t drink at all now.
is there a link?
Dear Doctor,
I am an allopathic doctor from Pakistan. I have multiple problems at hand to take care of. I had acute sinusitis back in 199 due to smoking and use to have post nasal drip and sevre cough. I dont have asthma and have discontinued smoking since 1999.

I also have fungal skin ifection which started from the feet but then spread to the groin and now i think to my trunk too. I have twice done complete course of Anti-fungal medicines but have the problem of recurrance and now even the dermatologist say I should avoid these medicines due to side effects.
I am looking for a good cure of my fungal infections since I am planning to get married in a few months. My personal hygiene is very good. Please advice a treament.
I have lost my sense of smell for the past 5 year . I sometimes smell just for a minute or two and then i again stop smelling. Sometimes I feel like my nose is conjested. I have been using Otrivin Nasal Spray but there is no change.also I am Suffuring from astma and use prednisolone for long term. Please help me what should I do
