Can tension headaches cause sinus congestion? my congestion always gets worse when i am doing things that cause my muscles to become tense

No: Your tension headaches may actually be migraines with autonomic manifestations or have an allergic component. If it becomes really bothersome, you should see a doctor about it, preferably someone astute about headaches.
