Puncture with genyantritis, as a method of treatment
In some cases, even with the use of modern techniques and the level of development of medicine, it is impossible to cure sinusitis without using surgical techniques.
If the patient develops purulent sinusitis - a puncture( diagnostic or therapeutic puncture) of the airway of the upper jaw. At present, conservative methods of treatment and some effective authorial treatments can be used to treat the disease, and in the vast majority of cases today, puncture is not used without a good reason for carrying it out.
Puncture of the nose with genyantritis
Very often, patients doubt whether a nasal congestion is necessary in case of genyantritis or there are effective methods, the use of which allows to cure the disease and prevent its transition to the chronic stage. In modern conditions, the emergence of an acute form of the disease, most specialists - ENT doctors and maxillofacial surgeons do not insist that the puncture in sinusitis is mandatory, whereas with the development of a severe general condition of the patient and the development of a purulent variant of the disease, this method of treatment remains the only effective one.
If a patient is diagnosed with catarrhal sinus after the results of the examination, then the treatment is performed by conservative methods - general and local pharmacotherapy, physiotherapy procedures, washes and irrigation. Bilateral sinusitis, especially with the development of a purulent form of the disease, cure without this manipulation will be very difficult. A puncture of the nose in case of a disease makes it possible to simultaneously perform two tasks: to create conditions for an effective and sufficient outflow of infected contents from the maxillary sinus, and to introduce directly into the inflammatory focus the drugs( antibacterial, antiseptic and decongestant drugs) necessary for its arrest.
How is the procedure done?
The sinus puncture in sinusitis is caused by local anesthesia, which uses drugs like Novocaine or Lidocaine. These drugs are used to irrigate the mucosa, and then they are injected with a thin needle directly under the mucous membrane of the nasal cavity.
Immediately afterwards, with a special atraumatic needle, a puncture of the punctured maxillary sinus is performed-and a part of the resulting contents is taken for microbiological examination, and then the maxillary sinus is washed with antiseptic solutions until the pus is completely removed. The procedure is completed by the introduction of antibiotics directly into the focus of inflammation - the treatment of sinusitis after puncture is performed with the help of antibacterial agents, while continuing the procedures recommended for conservative treatment of sinusitis.
In the treatment of severe purulent maxillary sinusitis or chronic inflammation of the maxillary sinus, it is very rare to achieve a noticeable effect after one puncture - several punctures of the inflammation focus have to be repeated. After a puncture of a genyantritis the patient feels relief - the headache, nasal congestion disappears, the general condition improves, because the source of constant intoxication in the body disappears.
Treat the disease after puncture
If the doctor prescribes a puncture for the treatment of a sinusitis, this practice does not mean that this person will have to use in the future only surgical procedures to treat this disease. Timely use of the puncture of the maxillary sinus helps prevent the development of suppurative complications and the spread of infection throughout the body.
Often patients ask the doctor who is treating the doctor - what to do after a sinus infection and what restoration methods will help to avoid the recurrence of the symptoms of this disease. The goal of the puncture in the genyantritis is to create a reliable way of outflow of purulent contents from the focus of inflammation - the pus remaining in the airway of the nose becomes a source of intoxication of the organism and contributes to the development of the chronic form of the disease, which will be cured much more difficultly than to conduct a full-fledged treatment of an acute variant of the disease.
Nevertheless, the puncture performed at the genyantritis does not provide for the rejection of antibiotics, local administration of vasoconstrictive and olive anti-inflammatory drops, symptomatic treatment( washing the nasal cavity with solutions of sea water or table salt, decoctions of medicinal herbs), physiotherapy shown with inflammation of the paranasal sinus. In addition, microbiological research will help to select an antibiotic or several drugs, to which the causative agent of the disease is sensitive - in this case the effectiveness of the therapy is increased several times. Antibacterial drugs can be used topically, inwardly or intramuscularly - the doctor supervising the patient should determine the choice of how to administer the medication.
Possible complications of
If a puncture is used for treatment of sinusitis - consequences with proper conduction do not occur, because to perform a puncture a place is chosen around which there are no large blood vessels and nerve trunks. Despite the fact that the procedure is somewhat painful and poorly tolerated subjectively, such treatment is indispensable in case of a serious condition of the patient and the threat of complications.
