A member asked:
Sinus infection 2 mos ago didn't quite go away with meds. little better still blocked up, why do both cheeks under cheekbone appear sunken in now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sunken cheeks: It sounds like it's not that the area below your cheekbones are sunken (this would be quite unusual) but maybe that your cheekbones and above, in the area around your eye, may be swollen giving you this appearance. I would return to see your doctor or an ENT to confirm the persistence of your sinus infection.
