Diagnosing & Treating Sinus Infections

When you visit AFC Urgent Care Union City with sinus infection symptoms, the first step is to receive a proper diagnosis. A healthcare provider will likely discuss your medical history and ask if you have any underlying health conditions. To diagnose a sinus infection, your provider will conduct a physical exam of your ears, nose, and throat to check for any signs of inflammation and infection. If additional testing is necessary, our center is equipped with advanced labs on-site. You never have to go to an external provider for your results, as they’ll be relayed to you within the timeframe of your visit.

Once diagnosed, your provider will discuss treatment options to help clear your infection and give you much needed symptom relief. If your sinus infection is bacterial, we can prescribe antibiotics in your treatment plan. We may also recommend supportive care remedies, such as OTC medications, hydration, sleep, and nasal decongestants.
