Sinus: The flu runs you down and allows for secondary infections to develop. It sounds like you developed an infection of the l frontal sinus and will need antibiotics . Tell your parents and have a doc take a look a simple ct would prove the infection but don't sit back check that sinus asap. You amy need a week or 2 of a good antibiotic.
