suggest measures for relief from yellow and greenish phlegm/ nasal discharge/mucuous------ sinus?

Answer 1

Persistent nasal discharge suggests the possibility of chronic sinusitis with or without a background of allergic rhinitis.

You should consult your doctor, who may suggest a referral to an otolaryngologist for further evaluation.

Chronic sinusitis is usually treated with an extended course of antibiotics. As allergic rhinitis is often associated with chronic sinusitis, your doctor may prescribe steroid nasal sprays for you depending on how severe your symptoms are and how often you get them.

If the sinusitis is very severe, especially if associated with headaches and other symptoms, and does not resolve despite antibiotic therapy, surgical procedures may be considered such as a Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery.

Answer 2

The above suggestions are very good. I have chronic sinusitis caused by allergic rhinitis and have had your symptoms. It sounds like you have an infection and need antibiotics at this point. Once infection controlled, I find Mucinex-D (2 pills twice daily) and Nasonex (prescription nasal spray) helpful. Also, nasal irrigation twice a day seems to help. Chronic sinusitis is a pain to deal with and can be debilitating. I think finding a good, caring ENT doctor is important. As a last resort if all other treatments do not help you, sinus surgery is an option. There is the old-fashioned type of surgery that can be quite painful and not always helpful from what I have heard and read. But, now there is a new procedure that inviolves shrinking your sinuses via an inflated "balloon" device. This is supposed to be much easier, much less painful and effective in some cases. I think it is being done in a limited number of hospitals in the U.S. at this point. I wish you the best of luck and hope you get some relief soon!

Answer 3

Green plem means bacterial infection. Yellow means viral. You need to see a doctor for an antibiotic. Take musinex to thin the phlegm and help relieve pressure.
