Brief Summary:
Chronic rhinosinusitis is a common disease that effects millions of people world wide. Despite its frequency it is unclear what treatment options are the best for these patients. Typically patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps (CRSsNP) are given a long term antibiotic (3 weeks), nasal steroid sprays, saline nasal irrigation and occasionally oral steroids. Oral steroids benefit patients with chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) however their role in non polyp patients is less clear. It is the goal of this study to see if oral steroids benefit the treatment outcomes in those patients with chronic rhinosinusitis without nasal polyps. In addition this study will look to see if a short course (5 day burst) versus a longer course (21 day taper) of oral steroids make a difference in outcomes.
Detailed Description:
The investigators will compare patients with CRSsNP who are treated with antibiotics/nasal steroid sprays, and compare them to chronic sinusitis patients who receive antibiotics/nasal steroid spray along with a course of oral steroids. The goal is to determine if oral steroids have a role in CRSsNP, and if so, the most effective dosage.
