Internists Don't Know Enough about Chronic Sinusitis

EmaxHealth has an interesting article about a recent study by a Georgetown University Medical Center internist showing his colleagues are not up to date on more recent information about chronic sinusitis. Chronic sinusitis is one of the more common complaints that bring people to the doctor every year. A lack of information on the part of internists who may be evaluating them could lead to misdiagnosis or even choosing a less effective older treatment method.The internist who performed the study makes a good point in that the solution to this is more studies and more review articles to bring the topic to the fore front of the attention of doctors new and old. Developments in the diagnosis and treatment of chronic sinusitis are occurring and are beneficial to patients and doctors.
