Post Covid head pressure

I had Covid 4 weeks ago and it was really bad. Luckily no chest issues but I felt so poorly for a good week.

I'm fully recovered now but since I've been better, behind my eyes and what I think are my sinuses, have been quite painful. I didn't have a runny nose or anything at the time but my eyeballs were really sore. If I cough or move my head too fast, I get radiating pain across the front of my face.

Has anyone else had anything similar?

Yeah I had it 3 weeks ago. Wasn’t too bad. Felt worse on day 3 with all the symptoms in one day or so it felt! but improved quickly after. I noticed sinus aches and pains in my face and also ear pressure and popping later that week when I’d gotten mostly better.

I took Sudafed for a day or too. Occasionally I notice a bit of pressure in sinus areas/under eye but not like it was. But that’s covid symptoms can linger for a while.

Sorry I didn’t see your post @overthinkersanonnymus and just made a thread on this! I have this symptom a few weeks later, always in the evening.

@AhaLyn mine tends to be as the day goes on too. It's awful!
