What is a Sinus Infection (Sinusitis)?
A sinus infection, also called acute sinusitis, occurs when the sinuses—air-filled cavities in the face—become inflamed and filled with mucus. This can happen after a cold, allergies, or exposure to irritants.
It’s usually caused by:
- Viruses (most common)
- Bacteria (when symptoms persist or worsen)
- Allergies or environmental triggers
