Does surgery cure Sinusitis permanently?
Sinus surgery is one part of the treatment plan recommended by your Sinus Doctor based on the nature of your sinusitis. Sinus surgery helps clear up your blocked nasal passages or clear infection and drain your sinuses which would help you breathe easier. Your doctor would also recommend follow-up medication and self-care methods to minimize recurrence. That said, it may not permanently cure your sinusitis always.
What are the risks of Sinus surgery?
With the latest advancements in surgical techniques, sinus surgery does not leave any scars or incisions. In case of endoscopic techniques such as Balloon Sinuplasty the procedure is carried out by inserting a thin, flexible instrument called an endoscope into your nostril. The endoscope has a small camera lens on its end which allows the doctor to see the infected areas and blocks, thereby allowing the doctor to remove the blocks, infection, polyps, scar tissue, etc as required.

SinusDoctor has been really helpful in diagnosing and treating my chronic Sinus. Being an IT Professional I'm exposed to a stressful environment during commute & constant exposure to A/c and pollution which aggravated my Sinus a lot. SinusDoctor has given a very practical cure without need for surgery.
