A sinus infection, or sinusitis, typically remains localized within the sinus cavities and does not spread throughout the body. However, in rare cases, if the infection is severe or untreated, it can lead to complications such as meningitis or orbital cellulitis, which can affect surrounding structures and potentially spread.

I've never heard of a nos-comical infection, but I do know of nosocomial infections. Nosocomial infections are those acquired in a hospital during a hospital stay.

That is a nosocomial or hospital-acquired infection.
