What Is The Remedy For Sinus Pain And Headaches?
I have had constant sinus pain and headaches for thirty years. I have dry sinuses and rarely ever need to blow my nose. I have had tests done but nothing was revealed. I was also born with no sense of smell but do not know if there is a connection. What do you think may ease the pain other than daily medication ?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having chronic sinusitis and headache.
Headache is a common problem and it can be caused by chronic sinusitis.
The treatment is by using antibiotics and symptomatic drugs like decongestants and mucolytics.
If sinusitis is not responding to medical treatment surgical treatment in the firm of sinus surgery may be required.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
