Sinusitis refers to inflammation of the paranasal sinuses caused by viruses, bacteria, fungi or irritants. Common causes include rhinoviruses, Streptococcus pneumoniae and cigarette smoke. Symptoms include facial pain, nasal discharge, cough and headaches. Diagnosis involves examination, imaging and nasal endoscopy. Treatment involves antibiotics, analgesics, decongestants and nasal irrigation. Surgery may be required for chronic cases that do not respond to medical management. Complications can include meningitis, brain abscess and orbital cellulitis if left untreated.
Sinusitis is an inflammation or swelling of the tissue lining the sinuses. Healthy sinuses are filled with air. But when they become blocked and filled with fluid, germs can grow and cause an infection.

Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility

Learning Objectives:
Describe the primary categories of smells and the concept of odor blindness.
Explain the structure and location of the olfactory membrane and mucosa, including the types and roles of cells involved in olfaction.
Describe the pathway and mechanisms of olfactory signal transmission from the olfactory receptors to the brain.
Illustrate the biochemical cascade triggered by odorant binding to olfactory receptors, including the role of G-proteins and second messengers in generating an action potential.
Identify different types of olfactory disorders such as anosmia, hyposmia, hyperosmia, and dysosmia, including their potential causes.
Key Topics:
Olfactory Genes:
3% of the human genome accounts for olfactory genes.
400 genes for odorant receptors.
Olfactory Membrane:
Located in the superior part of the nasal cavity.
Medially: Folds downward along the superior septum.
Laterally: Folds over the superior turbinate and upper surface of the middle turbinate.
Total surface area: 5-10 square centimeters.
Olfactory Mucosa:
Olfactory Cells: Bipolar nerve cells derived from the CNS (100 million), with 4-25 olfactory cilia per cell.
Sustentacular Cells: Produce mucus and maintain ionic and molecular environment.
Basal Cells: Replace worn-out olfactory cells with an average lifespan of 1-2 months.
Bowman’s Gland: Secretes mucus.
Stimulation of Olfactory Cells:
Odorant dissolves in mucus and attaches to receptors on olfactory cilia.
Involves a cascade effect through G-proteins and second messengers, leading to depolarization and action potential generation in the olfactory nerve.
Quality of a Good Odorant:
Small (3-20 Carbon atoms), volatile, water-soluble, and lipid-soluble.
Facilitated by odorant-binding proteins in mucus.
Membrane Potential and Action Potential:
Resting membrane potential: -55mV.
Action potential frequency in the olfactory nerve increases with odorant strength.
Adaptation Towards the Sense of Smell:
Rapid adaptation within the first second, with further slow adaptation.
Psychological adaptation greater than receptor adaptation, involving feedback inhibition from the central nervous system.
Primary Sensations of Smell:
Camphoraceous, Musky, Floral, Pepperminty, Ethereal, Pungent, Putrid.
Odor Detection Threshold:
Examples: Hydrogen sulfide (0.0005 ppm), Methyl-mercaptan (0.002 ppm).
Some toxic substances are odorless at lethal concentrations.
Characteristics of Smell:
Odor blindness for single substances due to lack of appropriate receptor protein.
Behavioral and emotional influences of smell.
Transmission of Olfactory Signals:
From olfactory cells to glomeruli in the olfactory bulb, involving lateral inhibition.
Primitive, less old, and new olfactory systems with different path

2. definition
• Refers to the inflammation of the mucous
membrane lining the paranasal sinuses.
3.
4. causes
Viruses
Common: Rhinoviruses, Coronaviruses, and Influenza viruses.
Other: Adenoviruses, Human influenza viruses.
Bacteria
Common: Streptococcus pneumoniae, Haemophillus influenzae, and
Moraxella catarrhalis.
Fungi: Aspergillus fumigatus (common in DM and HIV/AIDS.
Chemical irritants: cigarrete smoke, chlorine fumes.
5. Predisposing factors
• Allergic rhinitis
• Dental abscess
• Nasal polyps or nasal tumors
• Deviated nasal septum
• Immunosuppression e.g. DM or HIV/AIDS
6. classification
Acute sinusitis
Definition
Pathophysiology
Acute sinusitis usually follows an URTI or allergic rhinitis. The
mucosa of the nasal cavity becomes inflamed an d oedematous and
there is exudation. There is a resultant obstruction of the nasal cavities.
This creates a conducive environment for the multiplication of bacteria
in the sinuses leading to inflammation and exudation in the sinuses.
7. Chronic sinusitis
Definition
Refers to inflammation of the sinuses that lasts for longer than 3/52 (in
adults) or 2/52 (in children).
Pathophysiology
The openings into the sinuses are obstructed. This prevents drainage
from the sinuses. Bactria multiply in the sinuses leading to
inflammation , exudation and destruction of surrounding bone (bon
necrosis).
8. Clinical manifestations
Pain or pressure over the affected sinuses
(maxillary: cheek area, frontal: above the
eyes, forehead, ethmoidal: between or
behind the eyes, sphenoidal: behind the
eyes).
Fever
Nausea
Earache(=otalgia) Nasal discharge (purulent)
Dental pain Halitosis (=bad breath)
Nasal obstruction Cough
Sore throat Decreased or absence of smell (=anosmia)
Postnasal drip (in chronic sinusitis) Headache
9. investigations
Acute sinusitis
• Palpation and percussion over the sinuses elicits pain.
• Transillumination of the affected areas reveals a decrease in the
transmission of pain.
• Nasal swab is collected for C/S to identify the causative agent.
• NB: Imaging i.e. X-rays, CT scan or MRI are not recommended
unless complications have developed.
10. Chronic sinusitis
• Nasal and sinus endoscopy to allow visualization of the nasal cavity
and sinuses (a biopsy for histology or a sample for C/S may be
obtained and sent for testing).
• Imaging studies MRI,CT or X-rays of the sinuses may be done and
reveals pathology such as air-fluid levels or opacification of the
sinuses.
• Antral puncture and lavage provides material for C/S or histology.
13. Management
pharmacological
Acute sinusitis
Antibiotics
Amoxicillin PO 500mg three times a day for 3/52
Or
Clindamycin PO 600mg three time a day for 3/52
Or
Ciprofloxacin PO 500mg two times a day for 3/52
[EDLIZ, 2011]
Analgesia
NSAIDs such as Asprin or Diclofenac are administerd to relieve pain.
14. Management
pharmacological continued
Antihistamines
Used if allergy is suggested e.g. Chlopheniramine or Diphenhydramine
Nasal decongestants
Used to relieve swelling of the nasal mucosa leading to improvement of
drainage form the sinuses e.g. Pseudoephedrine
16. Management
other measures
• Administer adequate amounts of oral fluids to thin the secretions and
facilitate drainage of the sinuses.
• Nasal irrigation or gurgling may help to relieve symptoms
17. Surgical management
Surgical management is indicated for patients who fail to respond to
medical management. There are a number of procedure that can be
done depending on the underlying pathology:
Polypectomy
Refers the removal of nasal polyps.
Correction of a deviated nasal septum.
Antrostomy
Refers to opening into the sinuses and removal of all diseased tissues
from the sinus.
18. complications
NB: the sinuses are in close proximity to the brain which accounts for some
serous complications.
Brain complications
• Meningitis
• Brain abscess
Orbital complications
• Periorbital cellulitis
• Subperiosteal abscess
• Orbital cellulitis
• Orbital abscess
Osteomyelitis of the maxillary or frontal bones
