A member asked:
I had a viral respiratory infection, & now i have sinus pain. i also have painful swelling & a lump on the roof of my mouth. can the sinus cause this?

No: Sinus infections do not usually produce a painful swelling on the roof of the mouth. The two problems may be related in that a viral infection may lead to both conditions. The painful lump should be investigated by an ENT doctor.
