A member asked:
I used the flashlight test for my sinuses, i saw the light in my mouth, but i still have a lot of symptoms, does this mean i don't have blocked sinus?

Yes: But what symptoms do you have? If my symptoms you mean a stuffy nose and clear rhinorrhea that may just be allergies in the nose. The fact that you could see the light in your mouth means the sinuses not block with liquid.
