Balloon Sinuplasty
Do You Suffer From Sinus Pain and Pressure?
Sinus pain can be debilitating and affect your overall quality of life. Sinus sufferers know all too well the headaches, pressure around the eyes and nasal passages, and the combination of stuffy and runny nose that can make fulfilling everyday tasks feel impossible. On top of that, Ohio weather can be fierce and if you suffer from chronic sinus problems you know that the constantly changing barometer can mean that sinus pain and pressure can be intense. If you experience any of these symptoms, know that you don’t have to suffer anymore! In the past, surgery had been the only option for treating chronic sinus pain, but fortunately that’s no longer the case. Today, we can offer our patients minimially invasive procedures, done right in the office, that can help stop sinus pain and runny noses for good!
Sinusitis Sufferers--Find Instant Relief That Lasts
Office sinus dilation is a minimally invasive option that can be performed by Dr. Yerukhim right here, in our offices. The goal of office sinus dilation is to reshape anatomy to expand sinus pathways and restore drainage.
The procedure utilizes small balloons placed in key places in the nose and sinus, which are then dilated to expand the sinus pathways. It may be an effective, lasting option for some patients whose symptoms do not resolve with medication.
The Benefits of Office Sinus Dilation Include:
Convenient, comfortable office procedure[iii]
Quick recovery—most patients return to normal activity in 24 hours[iv]
