Expert care for acute and chronic sinus problems
Sinusitis is one of the most common reasons patients visit our ENT clinic in Noida. It occurs when the sinus lining becomes inflamed or infected, causing a blocked nose, facial pain, thick nasal discharge and reduced sense of smell. Left untreated, it can turn into a long-standing, chronic sinus problem that affects sleep, work and daily comfort.
As an experienced ENT specialist in Noida with over 15 years of practice, Dr. Manasi Mehra takes a detailed history and performs a nasal endoscopy to identify the exact cause of your sinus trouble — allergies, a deviated nasal septum, nasal polyps or infection — before recommending treatment.

Frequently asked questions
How long does sinusitis take to heal?
Acute sinusitis linked to a cold usually settles in 7–10 days with the right medication. Chronic sinusitis, lasting more than 12 weeks, needs a proper ENT evaluation and a longer, structured treatment plan.
Is surgery always required for sinus problems?
No. Most sinus infections are managed with medicines, nasal sprays and allergy control. Surgery (FESS) is only recommended when chronic sinusitis or nasal polyps don’t improve with medical treatment.
Can sinusitis cause headaches and eye pain?
Yes. Inflamed sinuses around the eyes and forehead commonly cause pressure headaches and pain that worsens when bending forward — one of the classic signs of sinusitis.
