What are the Treatment Options for Sinusitis in Cancer Patients?
Treatment of sinusitis in cancer patients can be more complex due to their weakened immune systems. Options include:
Antibiotics for bacterial infections Antifungal medications if a fungal infection is suspected Saline nasal irrigation to clear nasal passages Topical or systemic steroids to reduce inflammation Pain relievers and decongestants to manage symptoms
In severe or chronic cases, surgical intervention may be necessary to drain the sinuses or remove blockages.
