Sinus Specialist in Mumbai
Sinusitis
Sinus pressure isn’t just a minor inconvenience—it’s a major drain on your focus, sleep, and energy. Nasal blockage can occur due to nasal polyps, which are grape-like growths in the nose. Over 20 million Indians battle sinusitis each year. If you’re one of them, Dr. Shama S Kovale, senior ENT surgeon at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital, offers expert diagnosis and customized sinus relief solutions that go beyond surface-level fixes.
When Breathing Feels Like a Chore
Sinusitis happens when inflamed sinus linings trap mucus and air, creating facial pressure, headaches, and persistent nasal stuffiness. From urban pollution to allergic triggers, today’s lifestyle makes chronic sinusitis more common than ever.
Are You Ignoring Sinus Red Flags?
- You rely on nasal drops or steam daily
- You get more than 3 sinus infections a year
- You wake up tired despite sleeping 8 hours
- You feel facial pain or pressure after bending forward
If any of these sound familiar, it’s time to visit a sinus specialist.
Pinpointing the Real Problem
Dr. Shama S Kovale uses high-resolution nasal endoscopy and imaging to examine the sinus pathways. This reveals hidden issues, such as tiny anatomical obstructions, allergic swelling, or polyps, that over-the-counter sprays cannot address.
What Sets Her Sinus Treatment Apart
- Focus on long-term control, not temporary relief

- Fixes root causes like a deviated septum or concha bullosa
Why Treating Sinusitis Changes More Than Just Breathing
- Wake up fresher with uninterrupted sleep
- Say goodbye to daily nasal sprays and antibiotics
- Fewer sick leaves and better focus at work

Do I Really Need Surgery?
No rush to the OR. Many patients see results with allergy treatment, nasal rinses, and medication. Surgery is advised only if anatomical corrections are necessary or if medical management fails.
