A member asked:
If one has sinusitis, what effect does it have on eyes, nose, and ears?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sinusitis: The ethmoid sinus is over each eye in the forehead and sinusitis there can cause headache and eye pain. In the sinuses on either side of the nose, cheek pain can occur. If nasal membranes are congested, the eustachian tubes leading to the middle ear is blocked causing a blocked feeling in the ear. The sphenoid sinus in the back of the skull, when inflamed, can cause pain behind the eyes.This help?
