Differential Diagnosis:<\/p>\n
Allergic Rhinitis
\nViral Sinusitis
\nChronic Sinusitis
\nMigraine Headache
\nPlan<\/p>\n
Order a CT scan of the sinuses to confirm the diagnosis and assess for complications such as orbital cellulitis or abscess.
\nPrescribe Amoxicillin-clavulanate 875 mg PO twice daily for 10 days to treat the bacterial infection.
\nPrescribe intranasal cort icosteroids such as Fluticasone propionate 50 mcg\/spray, 1 spray in each nostril once daily to reduce inflammation and improve symptoms.
\nPrescribe decongestants such as Pseudoephedrine 60 mg PO every 6 hours as needed for congestion relief.<\/p>\n
Non-Pharmacologic treatment:
\nAdvise the patient to use saline nasal irrigation to help reduce congestion and improve sinus drainage.
\nRecommend warm compresses over the affected sinuses to alleviate pain and discomfort.<\/p>\n
Education:
\nAdvise the patient to complete the full course of antibiotics even if symptoms improve to prevent the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
\nInstruct the patient to avoid allergens and irritants that can trigger sinusitis.
\nEducate the patient on proper hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette to prevent the spread of infection.<\/p>\n
Follow-ups\/Referrals:
\nSchedule a follow-up appointment in 2 weeks to assess response to treatment and evaluate for any complications.
\nRefer the patient to an allergist or immunologist if chronic or recurrent sinusitis is suspected.<\/p>\n
