To determine if a patient has chronic sinusitis, the doctor will conduct a physical exam and ask about symptoms. An X-Ray or CT scans will also be done to look inside the sinuses. In addition, the doctor might look inside the patient's nose with a small camera for signs of disease that can't be seen from the outside.
