I have a cold i have been getting really bad headaches when i cough. its to the point where i cant do anything. what could be the source?

Sinus: Common for cold virus to cause sinus congestion and this can lead to a sinus infection. Typically symptoms can be alleviated and resolved with decongestant and frequent nasal saline washes. If the problem persists and you develop a fever then an antibiotic can help. If necessary you could connect with one of the HealthTap physicians if that therapy would be indicated.
