Treatments and Services
Depending on your condition, sinus and allergy evaluation methods may include discussion about your allergy triggers and medical history, allergy testing, nasal endoscopy, or a CT scan of your sinuses. Our sinus and allergy specialists will work with you to implement allergy-reducing lifestyle changes, administer allergy shots, or recommend the best allergy medication for your individual condition.
If antibiotic treatment does not improve your sinus or allergy condition, non-invasive treatments or surgery may be necessary to restore natural drainage patterns in the nose and sinuses. Whenever possible, we use outpatient, minimally invasive surgical methods, like sinuplasty, with no external incisions and quicker recovery time. In-office procedures under anesthesia are available for some conditions. Sinus and allergy procedures may include:
- Balloon sinus dilation
- Correction of deviated septum
- Cryotherapy for chronic rhinitis
- Endoscopic sinus surgery
- Radiofrequency of nasal turbinate
- Removal of nasal polyps
- Sinus wash or nasal irrigation
- Skull base surgery
