What are the symptoms of sinusitis in children? Generally speaking, there are symptoms such as nasal congestion and runny nose, and some will have fever symptoms. At this time, upper respiratory tract infection should be considered, and pneumonia in children should be prevented. If children have nasal congestion, runny nose, and sneezing for a long time, allergic rhinitis should be considered. If there is asthma, allergic rhinitis should be considered more. In addition, children's nasal secretions are vigorous, so don't use medicine indiscriminately just because you see a lot of runny nose in children. If children's rhinitis is not treated in time, it is necessary to consider whether complications may occur.

The most common complications of rhinitis in children are adenoids, otitis media, sinusitis, pharyngitis and bronchitis. Inflammatory irritation of the nasal cavity during rhinitis in children can easily cause acute adenoids in children, and long-term inflammatory stimulation can lead to hypertrophy of the adenoids. The nasal cavity is connected to the sinuses and the middle ear canal through the sinus opening and the Eustachian tube respectively. Therefore, the spread of inflammation and improper nose blowing can lead to purulent sinusitis and middle ear inflammation. Furthermore, nasal inflammation and nasal mucus backflow into the pharynx can cause pharyngitis and bronchitis.
