A member asked:
For what length of time do sinus infections take to go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
10-14 days: Most acute sinus infections are viral and can get better on their own in 10-14 days. If they last longer, then you may need an antibiotic for a bacterial infection. Infections can become chronic with fluctuating symptoms that can be prolonged.
