Prevention and treatment of sinus infections
During the dynamic period between seasons, our bodies become susceptible to various infections. Changing weather conditions can affect our condition, weakening the immune system and paving the way for infectious diseases. Infections are invasions of bacteria, viruses, fungi and parasites that disrupt the normal functioning of the body, causing a variety of symptoms.

Sinus infections are diseases that affect the sinuses, causing headaches, nasal congestion, discharge and pressure in the sinus area. Infections result from the penetration and multiplication of pathogens in the sinuses, leading to inflammation that blocks the nasal passages.
The two main types are acute and chronic sinusitis. Acute lasts up to 4 weeks and is usually the result of a viral or bacterial infection, manifesting as fever, headache and thick nasal discharge. Chronic lasts longer than 12 weeks, often associated with a persistent infection.
Sinus infections are transmitted by the droplet route, especially in winter or with prolonged contact with pathogens.
