Why Is There Pain Behind My Eyes Or Forehead When I Cough?

I have had a chest cold for about a week, my sinuses have never been plugged and my coughing no longer brings much phlegm up anymore, however I still will have occasional coughing fits that will cause a sharp pain behind my eye or my forehead area. Why is this pain there?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It is simply a congestion of sinuses and inflamed periorbital region. Take combiflam tablet and steam inhalation. Slowly you will have relief from all problems.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
