Brief Answer:
Sinusitis to consider.
Detailed Answer:
Hello and thanks for using HCM.
I have read your question and understand your concerns.
In my opinion, sinusitis is one of the most likely conditions that may cause symptoms as those you describe about your daughter.
It is necessary that your daughter to get examined by an ENT Doctor first and most likely by imaging studies of the sinuses, in order to confirm or exclude this possibility.
In my opinion, if sinusitis will be excluded as diagnosis after this examination, primary headaches should be taken in consideration.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
