Endoscopic Sinus Surgery

Endoscopic Sinus Surgery is a minimally invasive procedure used to treat chronic sinusitis and other sinus-related issues. During the surgery, a thin, flexible tube with a camera (endoscope) is inserted through the nostrils to visualize the sinuses. Doctors can then remove blockages, such as polyps or thick mucus, improving airflow and drainage. This procedure aims to relieve symptoms like congestion and facial pain, leading to better quality of life. It typically requires only local or general anesthesia and allows for quicker recovery compared to traditional sinus surgeries.
