These symptoms indicate sinus related pain.
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Welcome to Health care Magic
I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I will be answering your question.
I reviewed your history.
The symptoms of sharp pain behind the eye when you cough or bend over following a viral infection most commonly indicates sinusitis.
Since sinuses are situated surrounding the eye ball the inflammation of these will cause the symptoms of sharp pain behind the eye. The increase in pain on bending or coughing further confirms the diagnosis.
The treatment of the condition is by the use of deongestant drugs like Pseudoephidrine available as Sudafed. Along with this the use of analgesic drugs like Aceclofenac is recommended.
Do consult your family doctor for prescription of these drugs. You need to worry if there is redness of eyes or diminution of vision, otherwise these drugs will treat your condition.
Hope this answers your question and the information is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you
With regards
Mild inflammation or blockage of the sinuses will cause these symptoms.
