Sinnusitis
Sinnusitis
• They’re air spaces in your skull lined with mucous membranes. Most
people have four sets of nasal sinuses:
• Two in the forehead above the eyes
• One inside each cheekbone (dark triangles seen in this image)
• A group of them, called the ethmoid sinuses, behind the bridge of the nose
• Another group behind the nose and underneath the brain called the
sphenoid sinuses
• Sinuses are like fingerprints: Everybody's are different. Some people have
no frontal sinuses or just one.
