Sinus Infection > Me

Well I've had horrible headaches for 8 straight days. No medicine has helped. Just now googled sinus infection to see if it was a variation..and yes it is. Never had one before so didn't know.

Frontal sinusitis (behind forehead, one or both sides)

• Severe headaches in the forehead
  
• Fever common
  
• Pain worse when reclining and better with the head upright
  
• Nasal discharge or postnasal drip

normally a sinus infection will go away on its own in about 1-2 weeks. now what sux is if u get bronchitis to go with it. that sux.

Zicam to relieve the pressure FTW. I actually almost died from a sinus infection. It went behind my eye and actually started to travel up to the brain. My doctor thought i was having an anuerism (sp?). I was on 2 different antibiotics, but thet didn't relieve any pressure. I found Zicam by accident and it works wonders. Also there is a product called Airborn that is awesome as well.

I'd go see a doctor if I were you!

I had a bad sinus infection just a couple of weeks ago and almost turned into strep thoat. I had all your symptoms and bad sore throat and cough.

The dr. gave me an antibiotic shot and then Avelox anitibiotic 1 tablet a day for 7 days. He also hooked me up on some good cough medicine w/codine.
