Can Chronic Sinus Infection Cause Brain Damage?
Hello, I am 44 years old with a chronic sinus infection, I have extreme coughing bouts in the mornings from drainage. when I am coughing my head is in excrusiating pain and my sinus's as well. this morning, after the bout I had to blow my nose and was blood twice, the second with a small blood clot. Is that normal. Also, can you cough yourself into brain damage.

Hello
Welcome to HCM
I understand your concerns.As such coughing doesn,t cause brain damage.
Vigorous coughing and sneezing will lead to rupture of small capillaries in the nose that will cause bleeding through the nose.
I would suggest you to take antibiotics for chronic sinusutis along with inhalation of the sinarest vapocaps.
This will help to open up the openings of the sinuses and brings down your symptoms.
Hope i have answered your query.
Thank you
