Etymology of GENYANTRALGIA

The word "genyantralgia" is not commonly found in dictionaries or medical literature. It appears to be a combination of two distinct medical terms: "genyantritis" and "neuralgia".

1. "Genyantritis" refers to an inflammation of the maxillary sinus, which is one of the paranasal sinuses located in the cheekbones. It is usually caused by an infection, typically as a result of a bacterial or viral invasion. The term "genyantritis" is derived from Greek roots: "genys" meaning "cheek" or "jaw" and "antritis" referring to "inflammation of a cavity", specifically the sinus cavity.

2. "Neuralgia" is a medical term used to describe severe, recurring pain along the course of a nerve or group of nerves.
