Sinus problems? - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

dixielove · 12-10-2004, 10:03 AM

Hi, I used cocaine on and off for about a year. I quit using 10 days ago and I was wondering how long the sinusitis lasts? I have heard that chronic sinusitis takes a while to go away. Should I go to a doctor and get it treated? Thanks for any advice you can provide.

probably wouldn't be a bad idea to go check out a doctor anyway and let him know what you are doing with your life (if you havn't already). An informed doctor is indispensable for the recovering addict. I'm not really to familiar with sinusitis, I never had a whole lot of problems with that from all the BS I put up my nose, couldn't hurt though to get a professional opinion.

I agree........ see your doc!

I can tell you that I developed sinusitis from snorting Meth and it took years. But that isn't cocaine.
