A Sinus Headache
Introduction
Sinus headaches are linked with a depth and fixed nuisance in the bones, face, or cover of the nose. Symptoms of a sinus headache include pain or pressure around the eyes, cheeks and forehead; tender skin and bones over and under the eyes; and pain when bending over, during jarring movements or nose blowing. The sinuses make thin mucus that drains out of the channels of the nose. When a sinus becomes inflamed, usually as the result of an allergic reaction, a tumor, or an infection, the inflammation will preclude the leakage of mucus and make a pain similar to that of a headache. Sinus headaches can be hard to examine, however, because symptoms are similar to tension headaches and migraines.
