What Causes Dizziness And Discomfort In The Sinuses?
I normally sleep on my right side. If I try to sleep on my left when I get up I become dizzy when I get up. I noticed that my sinuses seem tight and are shifting. I monitor my BP and it was a little higher when I checked after getting up. What could be causing the dizziness?

Hi, Thanks for the query > I understand your concern. The symptoms suggest the sinus on opposite side is inflamed... & drains out. The Eustachian tube ( connecting throat to middle ear)on same side gets blocked to raise pressure in middle ear.. causing dizziness when you get up.when you sleep on left side. The little rise of blood pressure can be due to tension.progress of the In this matter I would advise for the sinus problem & allergy problem ( which could be the basic cause) so as to avoid the symptoms & further progress in the suffering. Thanks.
