Time to see doctor: The assumption based on the medications tried is that you have uncomplicated frontal sinus congestion. The treatment has not worked. Its time to see a headache specialist. You will be asked about characteristics of the headache, exacerbating and relieving factors, a general medical assessment and focused headache exam will be performed and you will likely be asked to have an imaging study done
