What is sinusitis?
Sinusitis — commonly called a sinus infection — is inflammation of the sinus cavities, the air-filled spaces behind your forehead, cheeks, and eyes. Acute bacterial sinusitis often develops after a cold or allergy flare-up, when swelling traps mucus and allows bacteria to grow. The CDC estimates over 31 million cases occur in the US every year.
Most sinus infections start as viral and clear on their own, but when symptoms persist beyond 10 days — or worsen after initial improvement — bacterial sinusitis is likely and antibiotics can help. With the right treatment, about 90% of bacterial sinus infections resolve completely.
Common signs and symptoms
- Facial pain or pressure (especially around cheeks and forehead)
- Nasal congestion or stuffiness
- Thick, discolored nasal discharge (yellow or green)
- Headache
- Reduced sense of smell
- Tooth pain or upper jaw ache
- Fever
If your symptoms have lasted more than 10 days or are getting worse after a few days of improvement, it may be time for antibiotics. A licensed Goza provider can evaluate your case and prescribe treatment — all online.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about sinusitis treatment at Goza Health.
When do I need antibiotics for a sinus infection?
Antibiotics are recommended when symptoms last more than 10 days, are severe (high fever, facial pain), or worsen after initial improvement. Your provider will evaluate your case.
How fast will I get my prescription?
Most prescriptions are sent within 24-48 hours of completing your visit.
Do I need a video call?
No. Message-based visits are private and convenient. Describe your symptoms and your provider reviews your case within 24-48 hours.
How much does a sinusitis visit cost?
A single message visit costs $79. Members ($69/mo) get message visits included, so you only pay for medication.
Is it a cold or a sinus infection?
Colds typically improve within 7-10 days. If symptoms persist beyond 10 days, worsen after initial improvement, or include severe facial pain and high fever, it’s likely bacterial sinusitis.
How long does it take to feel better?
Most patients notice improvement within 3-5 days of starting antibiotics. Complete the full course even if you feel better sooner.
Can I use nasal spray along with antibiotics?
Yes. Saline nasal rinses and decongestant sprays can help relieve symptoms while antibiotics treat the infection. Your provider may include supportive care recommendations.
Can a sinus infection go away without antibiotics?
Many sinus infections start as viral and resolve on their own within 10 days. However, if symptoms persist beyond 10 days, worsen after initial improvement, or are severe, bacterial sinusitis is likely and antibiotics help significantly.
What’s the difference between a sinus headache and a migraine?
Sinus headaches typically involve pressure around the cheeks, forehead, and eyes, along with nasal congestion and thick discharge. Migraines often include nausea, light sensitivity, and throbbing on one side. Your provider can help distinguish between them.
Can I fly with a sinus infection?
Flying with active sinusitis can cause significant ear and sinus pressure pain due to cabin pressure changes. If travel is necessary, a decongestant nasal spray before the flight may help. Treating the infection promptly is the best approach.
Are sinus infections contagious?
Sinus infections themselves aren’t contagious, but the cold or respiratory virus that triggers them can be. Good hand hygiene and avoiding close contact while symptomatic are always smart precautions.
What if my sinus infections keep coming back?
Recurrent sinusitis (3+ episodes per year) may benefit from further evaluation. Your provider can discuss preventive measures, nasal hygiene routines, and whether allergy testing or imaging might be helpful.
