possible functions of the sinuses include:
1. air conditioning
2. pressure damping
3. reduction of skull weight
4. heat insulation
5. flotation of skull in water
6. increasing the olfactory area
7. mechanical rigidity
8. vocal resonance and diminution of auditory feedback
9 There are four pairs sinuses, the maxillary is largest, then frontal ,ethmoidal and sphenoidal is ( below eye sockets) is to provide mucous and act as a resonance chamber for sound +lighten weight of the skull.
10. mucous glands moisten the air ciculating between the conchae, if fluid does not drain , this causes sinuses headache.
The possible functions of the sinuses are as follows:
1. air conditioning
2. pressure damping
3. reduction of skull weight
4. heat insulation
5. flotation of skull in water
6. increasing the olfactory area
7. mechanical rigidity
8. vocal resonance and diminution of auditory feedback
they lighten the facial bones and act as resonance chambers for speech
They make the bones of the skull light weight and for resonance of the voice.
Resonance chambers for speech and lighten the facial bones.
They help to lighten the weight of the skull, strengthen the skull, conduct air for breathing, and act as a resonance chamber in speaking and singing.

The sinuses are basically pockets of air in the bone, 2 on the forehead, and one under each eye. The 'inner lining' of the sinuses is a thin layer of tissue. They are all interconnected with the nasal cavity, hense when you get a cold, you have the feeling that there is 'pressure on your head'The reason for their existence is simple:They act as natural 'Shock-absorbers'. If the head were to take a direct hit to the forehead, and if the sinuses weren't there, the impact would exert pressure on the rest of the skull. Lack of sinuses would make the skull more prone to cracking.
They have two main functions: 1) As in all sinuses, they give size without added weight and 2) They give depth to the voice. You have the para nasal sinuses, assembled around your nose. You have maxillary sinuses, frontal sinuses, ethmoid sinuses and sphenoid sinuses around your nose. These sinuses make the area around your nose, very light in weight. The diagonally opposite part of the skull is thick and heavy. That is occipital bone for example! This has an evolutionary advantage to human being. After deep inspiration, you can float in the water, without any efforts. So these para nasal sinuses has helped you to keep your nose out of water. The opposite thick part of the skull help you in this endeavour. You can very easily understand the importance of your nose in water verses your nose out of water. That is the reason, why the para nasal sinuses are assembled around your nose. All the other advantages are accessory, probably.
Sinusitis (sye-nuss-EYE-tiss) means inflammation of the sinuses or, more specifically, the lining of the sinuses. Inflammation of the sinuses means infection in the sinuses which causes frontal headaches and nasal discharge. There are two sinuses called maxillary sinus which are in the cheek bones and frontal sinus and para-nasal sinuses around the base of the nose. You may require antibiotics, nasal decongestants, antral washouts and sometimes surgery to treat difficult cases.
The sinuses: paranasal sinuses are a group of four paired air-filled spaces that surround the nasal cavity (maxillary sinuses), above the eyes (frontal sinuses), between the eyes (ethmoidal sinuses), and behind the ethmoids (sphenoidal sinuses).
The sinuses are paired air pockets located within the bones of the face. They are: the ethmoid sinuses; located between the eyes, just behind the bridge of the nose.

The paired nares are another term for the nasal openings on a pig. These nares take in air to the sinuses.

If your sinuses are effected by a navel piercing that would make you a candidate for the Guinness world book of records. There is no way your sinuses would be effected by a navel piercing the two don't event come close to each other. Your sinuses are in your head, that's the cavity covered by your nose. So relax there is no danger of the two bothering each other.
Only if the two functions really represent the same function.
dural sinuses, cerebral sinuses, or cranial sinuses
The function of the pulmonary sinuses is to separate both of the semilunar cusps that are in the pulmonary trunk valve. They forma think wall between the two.
The biological role of the sinuses is debated, but a number of possible functions have been proposed:Decreasing the relative weight of the front of the skull, and especially the bones of the face. The shape of the facial bones is important, as a point of origin and insertion for the muscles of facial expression.Increasing resonance of the voice.Providing a buffer against blows to the face.Insulating sensitive structures like dental roots and eyes from rapid temperature fluctuations in the nasal cavity.Humidifying and heating of inhaled air because of slow air turnover in this region.
