A member asked:

Ive had the same headace for 4 days. it radiates from the top right side of my head down to my sinus. before this i was on antibiotics for sinusitis. pain meds not working. i am seeing the ent on monday but im not sure what to do in the interrim?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Which pain meds: There are lots of other things that cause headaches besides sinuses.Many of the headaches that people have that they contribute to sinuses are actually migraines.Did the antibiotics resolve the headches or at least help them.Also certain pain meds can actually cause rebound headaches,therefore the pain meds when they wear off actually cause the headache to recur.Follow up as scheduled.
