Doctor's nephew. I have acute sinusitis with pus, discharge a lot and have a very unpleasant odor. For the past few days, I have had a stuffy nose and can't breathe. The doctor told me how to treat acute sinusitis with pus, stuffy nose with a lot of discharge and bad smell? Ask your doctor for advice. Thank you,

Hello. Usually cases of acute sinusitis can be treated medically. However, there are some cases of acute purulent sinusitis with a foul odor that does not respond to medical treatment, then the doctor will consider an indication for surgery.
You should go to the Ear, Nose and Throat clinic at a reputable medical facility or one of the hospitals of the Vinmec Health System nationwide so that the doctor can examine and carefully assess the status of acute sinusitis with pus, nasal congestion. The discharge is profuse and has a bad smell to be treated by any method.
Thank you for trusting and sending questions about Vinmec. Best regards!
