Hello

Welcome in H.C.M.

I have gone through your query regarding persisting pain over head and green mucus even after sinus surgery.

I have carefully analyse your symptoms and after their clinical co-relation it appears as you are still having infection in your sinuses which is responsible for green discharge and headache.

Here you should do Culture and sensitivity of your green mucus which is coming out , this will tell us about infecting organism and the antibiotic you should take to clear the infection.

t is also advisable to rule out other causes of headache by ophthalmic and thorough physical examination.

Regards.
