A member asked:
I have post nasal drip and temple pain on both side of my head. i had sinusitis too but the pain on my face is gone. no congestion. what is this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Rhinitis vs Headache: Post nasal drip, sinusitis, and facial pain/pressure can be due to poorly controlled allergic/non-allergic rhinitis. Daily nasal sprays important to maintain control, can use chlorpheniramine at night for worsening drip. See Allergist to determine sensitivities for avoidance measures. Temple pain could be related to tension-type or migraine headaches depending on presentation, not typical sinus HA
