I recently been having an acute headache. Then the next night an ear ache as i was going to ly down. Now today it was nausea and an acute headache. At first i thought it was from anxiety from a test but now im seeing all these symptoms add up. Do i have a sinus infection as people have been saying i may or is it from my bodies reaction to the stress from the test i had taken?

Dear friend,

I am Dr. (Col) R Karanwal, M.D. (Internal Medicine), Consultant Physician, for your assistance.

Thanks for reposing your faith in me and post your query on this website. I fully appreciate your concerns.

Firstly, sinusitis-induced headache is usually on the forehead; may be unilateral or bilateral depending on whether sinusitis is unilateral/bilateral.

Further, sinusitis is usually associated with "stuffiness" in the nose, recurrent sore throat. Associated pain in ear occurs due to blocked tube connecting internal ear and back of the throat.

If you have been under constant stress/anxiety for sometime, your headache may be Migraine.

Please feel free to revert back to me in case of further clarifications, if any.
I am confident that you will benefit from the advice.
May I assure you that I am always available for your assistance. My endeavor would always be to give you a sound medical advice, to the best of my knowledge and vast experience.
HAVE A NICE DAY AND A SPEEDY RECOVERY.
Fond Regards,
Dr.(Col) R Karanwal
