Sinus Surgery – Los Gatos, CA
Sinus Surgery is one of the most common operations performed. Dr. Ho will review with you whether this procedure is the appropriate procedure to open possible sinus obstructions.
Colds, allergies, infections or other obstructions of the nose and sinuses (i.e., deviated septum) can cause inflammation of the mucosa and block the drainage of the sinus cavities. If the sinuses become inflamed, sinusitis can occur. The mucous becomes thicker and cannot pass through the openings and end up accumulating in the sinuses. Many symptoms can arise including fever, headaches, and pain over and underneath the eyes. Sinus polyps can form when mucosa becomes swollen by severe allergies or repeated infections. For more information about sinus surgery or to schedule a consultation appointment, call our office in Los Gatos, CA at Los Gatos Office Phone Number 408-379-8228.
