Is this sinusitis? or something else?

I had a really bad cold a week past Friday. Over the weekend it was starting to go but by Tuesday it had moved in behind my left eye, all the pain is on the left hand side.

Behind my eye hurts, my ear hurts even my teeth hurt. I'm not sleeping well because I can't breathe properly at night. I've been taking sinutab and Ibuprofen but nothing is shifting it.

What else can I do?

get your doctor to prescribe an antibiotic. Until you can get there steam inhalation may help.

i've got this but it's slowly going, i had a tooth abscess, are your teeth ok? it's horrible behind the eye isn't it. i got prescribed beconase as well as anti biocs and snorting salt water help.

The snorting water was the best aid and really helped the inflamation subside, when I had this.
