Types of Sinuses and Sinus Tips
By David H. Urmann
Sinus infections can be both chronic and acute. Learn more
about this sickness to better protect yourself.
Types of Sinuses
Paranasal Sinus
Sinus is an air-filled space commutating with the nasal cavity
within the bone of the face and skull. It forms developmentally
through the excavation of by air-filled sacs from the nasal
cavity. The process starts parentally and continues trough the
course of the organism’s lifetime. This sinus is joined to nasal
cavity via the small orifices known as ostia.
Malignancies of this sinus comprise about 0.2 percent of all
malignancies. Approximately 80 percent of these malignancies
arise in maxillary sinus. It is not only sinus within the skull,
mastoid cells in mastoid bone around the middle ear is also type
of sinus. This sinus also occurs in many animals including
crocodilians, non-avian dinosaurs, birds and mammals.
Dural Venous Sinus
This sinus has venous channels that can be found between the
layers of dura mater in the brain. The sinus receives blood from
external and internal veins of the brain and the cerebrospinal
fluid from subarachnoid space. The walls of this sinus consist
of dura mater lined with the endothelium and a specific layer of
the flattened cells found in blood vessels.
This type has numerous other sinus such as the inferior
sagittal sinus, straight sinus, superior sagittal sinus,
occipital sinus and the transverse sinuses, sigmoid sinuses as
well as the superior petrosal sinus and inferior petrosal sinus.
Coronary Sinus
This sinus is a collection of veins joined together to from
large vessel which collect blood from the myocardium of the
heart. The sinus opens into auricle between the inferior vena
cava and auriculo-venticular opening.
It is also situated in the right atrium and runs diagonally in
groove between the ventricle and left atrium on posterior
surface of the heart. The wall of this sinus is partly muscular
and at its junction with great coronary vein is somewhat
furnished and constructed with valve consisting of 2 unequal
segments.
Sinus Tips
You could try to heal sinus through natural means. Begin with
making sure that you are correctly hydrated. When get dried out,
so do your sinus secretions. Drink hot salty fluids such as
chicken broth to help you. It can steam your sinuses clear and
the electrolytes can help hydrate you. Spicy food could also
help but it could cause a round effect and close your sinus back
up.
The next thing you do is to use saline spray to keep your sinus
moist, particularly in dry climates. Several saline spray
bottles are designed to carry saline in different ways. Just lay
back in your bed and drip saline into your blacked nostril.
The neti pot is designed to flood your sinus lightly with
saline and wash them out completely. It is like a miniature tea
pot that you fill with saline. Lay your head sideways above the
sink and pour saline into your upper nostrils. The saline then
trickles through your system and comes out to your other
nostril. Saline has similar make-up as your fluids and if it is
warm it feels natural and easy.
You can use a “saline rinse bottle” which is capable of
actively flooding your sinuses. As with a neti pot, you are able
to flood your sinuses, however, with a little more pressure.
Finally you can use nasal strips. These are band aid-like
strips with a staff core that you could stick outside of your
nose, pulling your nasal passages open. Most people use it at
night to help them sleep.
