Suggest Treatment For Spots On Cheek With Sinus & Back Pain
I have a spot on my cheek that feels cold, I also have an uncomfortable feeling in my neck/throat, maybe like a tightness or that someone has hit me there, having said this there is no pain just slight uncomfort. I have sinuses and a history of neck and back problems.
Is there any history of allergy or insect bite? There could be two possibilities First, an allergic response to dust, pollen, particular food or insect bite. Second possibility is Acute Sinusitis. I would suggest you following things: > Firstly, if this is because of allergy then you need to take care in future to avoid such food. > Take acetaminophen for pain > Take hot water in a cup, add 1 table spoon salt in it. Perform gargles (mouth wash) with it three times a day for at least 3 days. It will give soothing effect.
AVOID: > Chilled water > Drinks > Spicy food
If condition does not start improving in 2-3 days then antbiotic therapy can be started.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. Wishing you good health.
