Constant Headache, Pressure Behind Nose And Eyes, Pain While Coughing. Got Hit In Nose. Suggestions?
HI, I was hit in the nose/forehead by a soccer ball (extremely hard) about 6 weeks ago. I have had an xray and everything came back clear (very lucky not to have broken it). Since then I have had constant headaches. It feels kind of sinus like, but I know its not sinus. Heavy pressure behind the nose and eyes. When I cough or sneeze it's like a stabbing pain. I kept thinking it was swelling but figured it should have subsided after 6 weeks. Any suggestions of where to go from here?
Hi, it appears to be the infection of the sinus behind the nose, may be maxillary sinus, due to a crack in the bone, not visible by x ray. You may need to have a M.R.I. for diagnosis, So i advise you to consult an E.N.T.surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. Thank you.
