How to use "Sinus" in context?
Sinuses are small cavities located in the frontal, maxillary, and nasal areas of the face. Sinuses are composed of air, and they communicate with other parts of the body through the nose and mouth. The ridges on the roof of each sinus allow infection to accumulate and spread.
The sinuses contain three layers of tissue: the mucous membrane, the air cells, and the bone. Sinusitis is an inflammation of the sinuses. The most common cause of sinusitis is a virus, but other causes include environmental factors, allergies, and autoimmune disorders.
