bacteria can even b helpfull

Bacteria may help cure sinus problem
 adding a dose of good bacteria to the sinuses may help treat some chronic conditions of the disease, a new study claimed ,
   In a study published in journal science translational medicine ,researchers discovered that some chronic sinus problems may be caused by depletion of good bacteria and the presence of bad bacteria in the sinuses.
   Adding back good bacteria to the sinuses will work to treat the condition and analogous to the way probiotics may treat certain intestinal problems .
   The study analysed the populations of bacteria present in the sinuses of 10 people with the chronic sinus problems known as chronic rhinosinusitis,and 10 healthy people.
   They  indentified the bacteria species by looking at their genes .people with chronic sinuses problems had fewer types of bacteria in their sinuses compared with healthy people ,and significant reduction in bacteria that produce lactic acid .
