Many people may not realize that the throat, nose, and ears of an individual are interconnected. An infection in one of these parts can easily spread to the other and affect all three. Sinus infections can spread easily and cause damage to the ears and throat. Many times, you may mistakenly believe you have an ear or throat infection. However, the root cause of the problem could be a sinus infection.

Whats is happening?

The fluids that are drained into the throat cavity by our sinuses continue to drain. If the drained fluid is contaminated and causes a problem in the throat, this can be very irritating. The fluid can irritate the inner lining and cause severe discomfort as it flows through the connecting tubes. If the infected fluid reaches the ears, it can cause severe swelling and infection.

This should be treated immediately to avoid further complications. The connecting tubes in the head also serve to equalize the pressure inside the head. This ensures that your head doesn’t explode when you change altitudes quickly, such as when you fly in a plain or go up a mountain. The tubes that open and close to maintain pressure are what you hear. If the tubes become blocked, the air cannot pass through them, which can cause severe pain and pressure changes in the head.

Pressure Factor

The pressure buildup will cause severe pain and press against your vital organs. You will also experience a decreased hearing and a blocked sensation inside your ears. These same symptoms can also be caused by allergies or infections. All of these conditions are caused by the buildup of mucus.

Sinus treatment works best when it targets the root cause of the problem and not the symptoms. Sinus infection symptoms can be relieved by nasal irrigation. If you are suffering from persistent ear infections that don’t seem to get better, you should have your sinuses checked. They could be the reason for the frequent occurrences of infections. There are many simple ways to reduce the infection once it is diagnosed.
