Sinuplasty
Sinusitis sufferer, Norman Wiesenfeld, says that living with chronic sinus pain stole every ounce of his energy. “I was trying to go to sleep and had coughing attacks every night and I couldn’t sleep.”
Having no success with a multitude of different over-the-counter medications and other prescription drugs, Norman opted for sinuplasty, a revolutionary treatment for sinusitis.
“It is different than traditional endoscopic sinus surgery that we have been using for the past fifteen or twenty years, this is non invasive and we use it as a catheter similar to the catheter that we use for patients to open up clogged arteries in their heart, we are going to use it to open up clogged sinuses, so we open up those passageways with a balloon that we inflate under anesthesia,” explains Dr. B. Todd Schaeffer of North Shore University Hospital. (Read more about Sinuplasty)
