Diabetes !! - must know for all people

If we sneeze and cough and have a blood red nose. We think it to be influenza(common cold) and if it doesn’t cure over a period of time .We may come to a conclusion that we may be having sinus . Sinus is nothing but air filled bags in head and cheeks. They start to grow when a child is in its mother’s womb and they grow till the age 20 .These are located in the back of our eyes, sides of nose and forehead. Like the nose sinus is also linked with mucous which are tiny hairs called cilia. The cilia beats back and forth in waves to clear mucus from the sinuses through a narrow opening in the nose and then move the mucus toward the back of the nose to be swallowed. If we have a cold or allergy, the membrane gets irritated and swollen and produces more mucus. This sinus keeps the head from being heavy and when these sinuses are filled with water like substance instead of air our head weighs, and it also decides the tone and so we will be having different tone when we have cold. When the tiny openings to the sinus are blocked mucous will be struck inside sinus and it serves as a good home for bacteria and virus.
