Can stress and tension in the neck cause sinuses not to drain properly?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may be related: Those two are different problems, don't always go together. however if you have a sinus drainage issue with possible sinusitis, i.e., headache, stuffed nose, airways blockade , poor sleep, etc. it may exacerbate or worsen the stress and tension levels. On the other hand, stress and tension if not treated it lowers inmune system and it may prompt you to all kind of infections like sinusitis.
