Doubt it: I cannot see how your posture could affect your sinuses.

Not really.: But it's good to work on your posture anyway. Try yoga, it is very good for posture and balance!

Not directly: There may be sinus symptoms that cause muscle tightening and headache but as a rule these areas with sinus do not cause sinus infection.

SINUSITIS: Is infection of the sinuses, ethmoid, frontal, maxillary. It is not affected by bad posture, shoulder or neck pain.
