Headache, Sinus Congestion, Tried Nasal Sprays And OTC Medication. Cause And Cure?
Since friday afternoon I have been having really bad headaches only above my left eye . In the past my doctor told me it has been due to sinus congestion. This time nothing is working. I have tried nasal sprays, OTC medication, Neil-med and various things like that. What could I have and what can I use to relive this pain?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having headache, sinus congestion.. This indicates that you are having sinus related headache because of sinusitis.
The treatment of sinusitis related headache is by treatment of sinusitis by antibiotics and decongestants. If the sinusitis is chronic then it may require surgical treatment in the form of functional endoscopic sinus surgery.
Thank you
