ISSUES OF PATHOGENETIC THERAPY OF ACUTE SINUSITIS, OCCURING ON THE BACKGROUND OF ALLERGIC RHINITIS IN CHILDREN
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is one of the first predisposing factors for the development of acute sinusitis. 46 patients with acute sinusitis on the background of AR, aged from 5 to 18 years, were examined and treated. Conducted stepwise treatment in accordance with the severity of the disease. Initial irrigation of the nasal cavity with saline solutions followed by the introduction of a topical intranasal corticosteroid (VIC) and, at the final stage, the use of a nasal topical antibacterial spray. By the end of the course of treatment, positive dynamics of both objective data and subjective sensations of patients have been noted.
