Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thank you for your query,
Eye pain is a common accompaniment in cases of sinusitis.
this is due to the involvement of ethmoid sinus which lies directly behind the eyes.
the persistance of pressure in the eyes even after a course of antibiotics is seen in some patients owing to some residual infection in the sinus
this can be easily treated by a combination of-
1. nasal sprays
2. hydrotherapy
3. massages
4. drinking loads of fluids
5. taking specific anti biotics
Hydroterapy for sinuses mainly depends on increasing and improving circulation to the sinuses helping in better aereation and hence lesser chances of infection of the sinuses.
some of the steps include-
-steam inhalation with hot water
-hot showers
-vapouriser
-heating pads
apart from these some home tips include-
-sleeping in an elevated position will help drain the sinuses due to gravity
-apply cotton dipped in wan water over eyes to relive pressure
- breathing exercises also help relieve congestion and hence the eye pressure
- decongestants and nasal sprays will also help in minimising the pain
in severe cases where th pain and congestion are not relieved over period of months your doctor may advise you to go in for surgical approach. in this the surgeon drills into the sinus and manually drains it. this also helps in better aeration and prevents further chances if infection.
