Sinusitis: How to Get Treated Without Seeing a GP

Published on 24 January 2025 at 00:01

Struggling with Sinus Pain and Blocked Nose? Here's What to Do


Sinusitis happens when your sinuses get inflamed, usually due to a cold, allergies, or sometimes a bacterial infection. Most cases clear up in about two to four weeks without any treatment, but if you’re feeling worse or not improving after 10 days, you may need treatment with medicines such as steroid nasal sprays and antibiotics. 

That's where we come in, advising you on the best treatment action without you leaving work or home! Our registered pharmacy partners are free to video call you to assess your symptoms and see if you need antibiotics, steroid nasal sprays or even recommending you the best medication you can buy over-the-counter.  This can all be done, from WhatsApp to prescription in under 15 minutes! We also arrange next-day delivery on any prescriptions the clinician makes out for you, leaving you to focus on keeping well! 

 

Symptoms of Sinusitis may include:

✅ Pain, swelling, and tenderness around your cheeks, eyes, or forehead
✅ A blocked or runny nose
✅ Reduced sense of smell
✅ Green or yellow mucus from your nose
✅ High temperature
✅ Headache
✅ Toothache
✅ A feeling of pressure in the ears
