About Coastal Sinus

Coastal Sinus is a plain-language guide to sinus health for people at the Jersey Shore: sinus infections, chronic sinusitis, nasal polyps, sinus procedures, and how humidity, mold and salt air affect the sinuses. It is a health information site, not a medical practice, and it does not provide care.

How articles are made

New articles are drafted with AI assistance from peer-reviewed studies indexed in PubMed and from public-health agencies. Each article lists its sources so you can read them yourself. We do not describe any product as a cure or treatment for disease.

Not medical advice

Nothing here replaces a visit to a clinician. Get emergency care for swelling or redness around the eye, double vision, a severe headache with a stiff neck, confusion, or a high fever with facial swelling.
