A member asked:
Headache and stuffy nose on one side, could this be a sinus infection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: Do you have fever, chills, discomfort with bright lights, neck stiffness? Ear pain? How do you feel when you bend your neck forward to look at your belly button? No? You might just have a sinus headache that is viral in nature but if you feel you’re not feeling better with lots of fluids and rest, then go to doc to be assessed for bacterial sinusitis. Keep mouth clean with Listerine and gargle.
