At Prima ENT Hospitals, we understand the chronic discomfort and recurrent pain that comes with sinusitis. Our dedicated team of ENT specialists is equipped with the latest technology to offer Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS), a minimally invasive procedure designed to restore sinus ventilation and function.
Functional Endoscopic Sinus Surgery (FESS) is a minimally invasive technique used to treat chronic sinus infections and other sinus problems that haven't responded well to medications. FESS involves using a nasal endoscope to visualize and remove affected tissue and bone, allowing for natural sinus drainage and relief of symptoms.
At Prima ENT Hospitals, our approach combines state-of-the-art diagnostic techniques, personalized patient care, and expert surgical procedures. Our ENT specialists ensure that each patient receives a comprehensive evaluation and a treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.
What are the symptoms of sinusitis that might indicate the need for FESS?
Who is a candidate for FESS? Patients suffering from chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, or sinus blockages that have not improved with medical therapy may be candidates for FESS. An evaluation with one of our specialists will help determine if this procedure is suitable for you.
What are the benefits of undergoing FESS? FESS can lead to significant improvements in breathing, reduced sinus infections, and a decrease in facial pain and headaches. It is less invasive than traditional surgery, resulting in fewer complications and a quicker recovery time.
What is the recovery time after FESS? Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days, although full recovery can vary. Our team provides detailed post-operative care instructions and follow-up appointments to monitor your recovery.
Is FESS painful? Pain is typically minimal after FESS due to the minimally invasive nature of the procedure. Any discomfort can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
How can I prepare for the surgery? Our medical team will provide you with all the pre-operative instructions, including medications to avoid, dietary suggestions, and what to bring on the day of your surgery.
