"Is Nasal Sinusitis Combined with Nasal Bleeding a Serious Condition?"
Generally, if a patient experiences symptoms of sinusitis and nosebleeds, and the symptoms are relatively mild, the condition is generally not severe. However, if the patient's condition is more severe, it may be more concerning.
1. Not Severe:
Sinusitis is an upper respiratory disease caused by bacterial infection, which during its onset can lead to local mucosal congestion, swelling, and increased secretions, causing symptoms such as purulent nasal discharge and headache. Nosebleeds can be caused by trauma or forcefully blowing the nose, leading to the rupture of capillaries. If only these two conditions are present without other discomforts, and if they can be controlled with active treatment, the condition is generally not considered too severe.
2. Severe:
However, if in addition to the above manifestations, symptoms such as difficulty breathing and decreased vision are also present, it indicates that the condition has progressed to a severe stage, which is a more dangerous state requiring prompt medical examination and targeted treatment by doctors to avoid delaying the optimal treatment window and worsening the condition. It is recommended to rest adequately, avoid excessive fatigue or staying up late, and take proper precautions to prevent catching a cold. Additionally, maintain a balanced diet, focusing on light and easily digestible foods, such as fresh fruits and vegetables like apples, bananas, dragon fruits, cucumbers, and tomatoes. Also, include protein-rich foods like egg custard, milk, and lean meat porridge to supplement the body's nutritional needs, benefiting overall health.
