Take some OTC: Cold and cough meds (dayquil, nyquil, vitamin c 1 gm twice a day), chew cough drops, do steam inhalation etc. Follow up with your dr. Consider having a sinus xray if u don't feel better. Take care! http://www.Medicinenet.Com/script/main/mobileart.Asp?Articlekey=476.

Maybe migraine?: Headaches caused by sinus infection are typically not severe and rather more nagging. However, sinus infection can trigger migraine headaches which can be quite severe for some folks. So, if your headaches are so severe and persistent, i would advise consulting doc for eval and treatment. Good luck.
