| Understanding sinusitis
Sinusitis is an inflammatory process within the
air-filled cavities located in parts of the upper
jaw, the nasal region and the frontal part of
the skull. Sinusitis is mainly a severe or chronic
form of upper airway infections.
Sinusitis is frequently precipitated by common
colds or allergies.
Persons with allergies, for example hay fever,
are often more susceptible to cold infections.
That is due to the fact that the mucous membrane
of the respiratory tract is weakened by the allergy
and thus and important protective barrier against
pathogens does not longer work at its optimum.
Common colds, in turn, are responsible for most
cases of acute sinusitis. Those are primarily
caused by more than 200 different viruses. Therefore,
during an episode of cold, the immune system is
additionally weakened hence causing secondary
bacterial infection.
Therefore, Esberitox®N
can be of great advantage especially in cases
of allergy- or virus- induced sinusitis which
are often aggravated by bacterial superinfections.
