Chronic sinusitis is a long-lasting inflammation of the sinuses that can cause nasal congestion, facial pressure, headaches, and post-nasal drip for 12 weeks or longer. At ENT New York, we specialize in diagnosing and treating chronic sinus conditions with precision and care, helping patients breathe easier and regain their quality of life.
Unlike acute sinus infections, chronic sinusitis may not respond to standard treatments and often requires a deeper investigation to uncover underlying causes—such as allergies, nasal polyps, or anatomical blockages. Dr. Vandana Kumra utilizes advanced imaging, endoscopic evaluation, and allergy testing to understand the root of your symptoms. Based on these findings, she tailors a treatment plan that may include medication, in-office procedures, or minimally invasive sinus surgery.
Dr. Kumra is experienced in functional endoscopic sinus surgery (FESS), a technique that improves sinus drainage while preserving normal tissue. This approach, combined with comprehensive follow-up care, supports long-term symptom control and a lower risk of recurrence. If you've been struggling with persistent sinus issues, ENT New York offers the expertise and technology to provide lasting relief.
