Sinusitis Sinusitis is known as peenas in Ayurveda. Sinusitis is the inflammation of the sinuses when it gets blocked with mucus, germs or fluid and gets infected. Kids who get colds more often and asthma patients are more at risk of getting this condition as it starts with some infection in the nasal cavity. Rather than just treating surface symptoms, it is recommended that you provide ongoing nourishment and support to the lungs and the respiratory system.
