I've had sinusitis for almost two months now and even after taking antibiotics and using a nasal spray, the pressure just won't go away. My CT scan showed a slightly deviated septum to the left, right concha bullosa, hypertrophy of both inferior nasal turbinates, and polypoidal thickening in the maxillary and left ethmoid bulla. Should I consider surgery or wait it out for a few more years?

Can the surgery for pus behind the eardrum be done with local anesthesia or is general anesthesia always necessary I'm a bit nervous about going under and wondering if there's another option

Your healthcare provider will give you general anesthesia that puts you to sleep. You may also get antibiotics to reduce the chance of an infection. Once you're asleep, your provider will access your eardrum.
