A member asked:
Ct scan came back normal. could my sinuses still be causing problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not usually: Paranasal sinuses that are clear on CT without mucus membrane thickening or mucus cysts are not usually symptomatic. CT exam is more sensitive than plain radiographs for major and minor issues.
