WHAT ARE SINUSES? Sinuses are air pockets that are located within the bones of the skull and face and are connected to your nasal passages by small tubes or channels, the osteomeatal complex. These channels permit air to flow from the nose into the sinuses and allow drainage of mucous from each sinus into the nose.
These are connected to the space between the nostrils and the nasal passage (behind your nose). Sinuses help insulate the skull, reduce its weight, and allow the voice to resonate within it. The four major pairs of sinuses are the: 1  Frontal sinuses (in the forehead)  Maxillary sinuses (behind the cheek bones)
