Kaplan Sinus Relief explains that whilst it is common knowledge that stress can raise your blood pressure, few people know that there is a link between stress and sinusitis – a common condition in which the lining of the sinuses becomes inflamed.
In fact, sinus pressure and congestion can accompany periods of stress and worsen an already uncomfortable state of being. One way this occurs is through stress and anxiety affecting the sinuses indirectly. The conditions increase an individual’s susceptibility to a range of health issues that, in turn, worsen sinus problems.
Over a lengthy period of time, stress can weaken the body’s immune system, making you more vulnerable to the effects of allergens, as well as germs, bacteria, viruses, infections.
