I have a yellowish fly even after sinusitis?

29-year-old woman3 years ago

Hello, I finished an antibiotic yesterday (Wednesday) to treat sinusitis. The antibiotic was prescribed for 7 days, twice a day. All my symptoms are gone, but I still have a slight yellowish nose. Is this normal? Thank you for your help!

Thank you for your question!

Yes, this is normal, there may be some residual inflammation secondary to the infection. However, you should notice a decrease in this every few days, but it may take a few weeks to completely disappear.

I hope this helps, and I am available if you have any further questions!
