Your sinuses are air-filled spaces located behind your forehead, eyes, nose and cheekbones. They are typically something you never think about until they start causing problems. Within the sinuses, you’ll find a layer of membranes and small, hair-like structures called cilia. Cilia help move the naturally occurring mucus in the sinuses toward small sinus openings where the mucus is then able to drain into your nose.
Along with cooler temperatures, autumn also brings with it fall allergies. And record rainfall in the south this summer means that certain areas, including Texas, are going to be especially hard hit by allergies this season. This may come as no surprise to residents in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, which has been significantly impacted by fall allergy season in years past.
