A member asked:

I have a sinus infection(we think) my skin in my face feels tight, i feel slightly lightheaded?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sinusitis : The most common symptoms would be pressure over the infected sinus with some dizziness and nausea. May have other cold or flu symptoms but not always. See your doctor to get the right diagnosis.
