TIIE SINUSES M111’ CAUSE TROUBLE THROUGHOUT Tllli B091’

No humorous remark ts now made i when the physician after test-s, eon- sultation with the dentist, and an Xxay of the teeth announces that. the pain 1n the joint. or muscle ls due ho Infected teeth. The fact that. the Infected teeth and tonsils are

1 the most frequent causes of pa1ns.l

tiredness, rheumatism folowed byi heart disease, has been well provenl

However some newspaper writers] and ltumorlsts are now telling us that physicians have "discovered" illwther part of the body that can be blamed for pains, rheumatism, heart dsease and high blood preg- 1 sure. and that inflammation of this! part-the sinuses or caverns adjoin- ing the nose-now called sinusitis will be the "fashionable" ailment about: which these patients can tell their friends. _

There are three sets of sinuses, at

different levels, connected with the nose. They form a sounding box for the voice and help to mosten air going into the lungs. Wlth a. head wld the"? "my be an accumulation of mucous ln these sinuses which gives the voice the “flnt" sound which ls so characteristic. __ I-lowever- just. as simple inflamma- irons can go on to severe infleimma. trons. from excess moisture or mucous to pus formation, so pus- rrtore or .ess vruleril; or poisonous- _1s formed in the sinuses and Bets into the blood just as do poisons from teeth and tonsils.

Dr. Robert F. Rldpath, Philadel- tthlfl. Professor of nose and throat. rllsnses. Temple University, at the Yntematlonul Assembly at St. Paul last Autumn reminded the members that the nose. throat and ear are oar-ts of the body and poisons from lnflammations ln these parts are carried by the blood to all parts of- lhe body causing both local and! general symptoms.

"Infections of 1hr- stomneh, ap- pendbr. gall-bladder, and other stomach and lnte-stinat conditions mav be traced to sinus infections. and so H150 may chronic bronchitis and tuberculosis.

To treat. patients with asthma without a thorough study of the nose is folly. The sinuses ltave been largely overlooked. while we look for trouble 1n teeth. tonsils. nncl ln trail bladder, stomach and intes- t'n1~.<. If the nose is at fault 1n chronic arthritis or rheumatism the trouble ts probably ln the maxillary sinus (in upper jawf‘)

Inflammatory diseases, of the outer and inner surfaces of the, heart. and of the muscular walls of 1 the heart ltsef are frequently due to sinus infection. The knowledge that the sinuses may be factors In causing many ailments throughout the body should prove helpful to physclans and patients.
