A member asked:
Can sinus give you mild pain in the head and neck?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Remember the inflammation in the sinus when laying down at night drains through the blood stream to the back of the head and down the neck. In terms of headache, the walls of the sinus cavities are full of the nerves that supply sensation to the face. Where there are nerves and inflammation there is pain.
