Have Headache Continuously Which Subsides With Tylenol. Had Sinus Earlier. Can This Also Be A Sinus Headache?
hello, I have had a headache on my right side of my head and towards the back of the head for two days. The headache subsides a little when I take Tylenol. But is seems to lingered through the rest of the day. The headache feels more like pressure on my right side. I have suffered from sinus headaches in the past, but it usually on the front side of my head. Is it possible to have a sinus headache reflecting on the right side of my head?
Your current symptoms are not suggestive of sinusheadaches. These are more likely to be related to migraines. You would benefit from taking migraine-preventive medications, such as beta blockers, topiramate, divalproex, etc.
I hope it helps. Please get back if you require any additional information.

Hi there, thanks for asking. The symptoms you mentioned are not typical for a headache related to sinus infection. However, these headaches get worse with pressure on the face above eyebrow. It is better to check with your doctor to do a physical examination. Best.
