It is used to safely and effectively treat chronic sinusitis patients who are not responding well to medications such as antibiotics, nasal steroids, or over-the-counter (OTC) drugs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How Balloon Sinuplasty Works<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With Balloon Sinuplasty, a specially-designed catheter is inserted into the nose to reach the blocked sinus cavity. A small balloon is slowly inflated, which widens and restructures the walls of the sinus passage, helping to drain mucus from the blocked sinus and restore normal sinus drainage without cutting and with minimal bleeding. This approach also preserves the natural structure of the sinuses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"783\" height=\"532\" src=\"https:\/\/kurtgarrenmd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Balloon-Sinusplasty.png\" alt=\"Balloon sinuplasty illustration\" class=\"wp-image-1055\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kurtgarrenmd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Balloon-Sinusplasty.png 783w, https:\/\/kurtgarrenmd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Balloon-Sinusplasty-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/kurtgarrenmd.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Balloon-Sinusplasty-768x522.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 783px) 100vw, 783px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where is Balloon Sinuplasty Performed?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Balloon Sinuplasty can&nbsp;be performed &nbsp;under general anesthesia at a hospital or surgery center \u2013 or right in your doctor\u2019s office under local anesthesia.
