What are sinuses?
Quick Answer
Sinuses are air-filled cavities in the skull that help lighten the head and affect the sound of your voice.
The Full Story
The paranasal sinuses are spaces in the bones around the nose and eyes, including the frontal, maxillary, ethmoid, and sphenoid sinuses. They are lined with mucous membranes and connect to the nasal passages. These cavities help reduce skull weight, produce mucus, and may also influence voice resonance. When they become inflamed or blocked, sinusitis can cause pressure, congestion, and facial pain.
