Chronic sinusitis is a condition where the sinuses remain inflamed and swollen for 12 weeks or longer despite treatment. It is caused by persistent allergic reactions to environmental triggers like mold, pollen, and animal dander that elevate IgE antibodies and cause ongoing inflammation. The Respiratory Allergy Panel is the most important test for diagnosis because it identifies specific regional allergens triggering chronic sinus inflammation.

Chronic sinusitis is caused by persistent inflammation of the sinus cavities due to allergic reactions, infections, nasal polyps, or structural abnormalities in the nasal passages. Environmental allergens like mold spores, pollen, dust mites, and animal dander trigger elevated IgE antibodies that cause ongoing sinus inflammation. Bacterial infections, weakened immune function, and conditions like asthma can also contribute to the chronic inflammation that prevents sinuses from draining properly.
The Respiratory Allergy Panel is the most important test for chronic sinusitis because it identifies specific environmental allergens triggering persistent sinus inflammation by measuring IgE antibody levels to regional allergens like mold, pollen, and dust mites. For people with occupational or environmental exposure concerns, the Chicken Droppings IgE test detects antibodies to poultry allergens that can cause chronic inflammation. The Allergen Specific IgE Iodine Bush test helps identify plant-based allergic triggers specific to certain geographic regions. While imaging studies diagnose the condition itself, allergy blood testing is essential for developing targeted treatment plans to reduce exposure and manage symptoms effectively.
You should get tested if you experience persistent facial pain or pressure, nasal congestion lasting more than 12 weeks, reduced sense of smell, or thick nasal discharge that does not improve with standard treatment. Testing is especially important if you have recurring sinus infections multiple times per year, symptoms that worsen around specific environments or seasons, or if you also have asthma or other allergic conditions. Getting allergy testing early helps identify triggers so you can avoid them and prevent the condition from worsening or requiring more aggressive treatment.
