A member asked:

What could be causing burning in my sinuses and a headache? i do not have any congestion.

Dr. David Kam answered

Facial pain: Facial pain is commonly a form of headache rather than sinusitis especially if there is no nasal congestion or nasal discharge. Facial migraine, cluster headaches and tension headache are in the differential diagnosis. See a neurologist if symptoms persists.
