My neurologist told me that when the mri showed new near complete opacification left frontal sinus, that his mri machine is "very sensitive"- why did he tell me this? he also asked me if i have any headaches--i do not. if i had headaches, why would i?

Sinuses: The opacification of frontal sinuses is usually due to inflammation. Sinus inflammation or infection can cause headache or facial pain. I suggest you discuss your issues with your neurologist.

Distinctions: Some physicians promote their referral facilities by compliments. This is gratuitous and meaningless as all facilities are certified by regulatory agencies. Re.: headaches and/or facial pain can be associated with acute and subacute sinus infections, so, presence of localized pain would tend to reinforce the zeal for therapy.

I asked earlier. I had MRI with "complete opacification of the left frontal sinus". I did not mention that I do not have any symptoms, at least none of which I am aware. Does this opacification still need to be treated? Why don't I have any symptoms?
