A member asked:
I have thickening of maxillary sinuses, i have headaches(mostly in the back of my head) for 13 days. are they related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: Thickened lining of the maxillary sinus could mean inadequate drainage of your sinuses. The increased pressure can cause headaches. You need to be evaluated by an ENT doctor and possibly have a ct scan done for a complete diagnosis.
