A member asked:
Is it normal to have a sinus pain when sneezing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not generally: The pain usually occurs as a result of a pressure differential between your nose and the sinus cavity, suggesting there may be partial blockage of the sinus drainage. Use of a netti pot, other sinus irrigation or a decongestant might be helpful. If this does not work, see your local ENT doctor.
