Sinusitis possible: Sinusitis is possible. To confirm, you need to see a clinician & possibly get a sinus CT scan. Hope that helps.

Sinusitis: Sinusitis can explain your symptoms. The diagnosis can usually be made on history and physical exam. A plain xray will also show it, or a CT scan to get more details - but this is usually not required to treat an initial episode of sinusitis.
