Whats the relationship between asthma and sinus problems?
Studies have shown that there’s an association between sinus disease and lower airway disease, such as asthma, and that by treating a patient’s sinuses, not only will their sinus symptoms get better, but that it will have a beneficial effect on their airways or their lungs that are seen in asthma. As a matter of fact, there’s a thing called a sinobronchial reflex, and that reflex will very often show that when sinuses get inflamed, the lower airways get inflamed. There have actually been studies that suggest that just treating the sinuses alone will improve lung function.
