Patients & Consumers Rhinosinusitis: What is Triggering My Rhinosinusitis?
Patients with chronic rhinosinusitis have ongoing inflammation of the sinus membranes. As a result, they have chronic symptoms. In addition to infection (viral or bacterial), the symptoms of rhinosinusitis may be triggered in some patients by exposure to noxious chemicals, cigarette smoke, air pollution or allergens.
