I had a cold recently which has now gone but in turn I ended up with the most horrendous headache 6 days ago and the next day pain all developed in my face (bridge of nose, cheeks and jaw) so very sinus like, left it until today to call doctor as I feel very weak/lack of energy where as yesterday I was ok minus pain and headaches, I feel very unwell today so doctor said it does sound a bit like sinus but I don't have a runny nose, he asked if I had a blocked nose and I said no but I have post nasal drip badly and it's painful on the bridge of my nose he said yes I think you just have a bit of sinus then, anti biotics won't work so let's try a steroid nasal spray for a week and see how you get on. I'm worried because I genuinely feel horrendous and worried I will get worse, I thought if you had sinus the only thing for it was anti biotics. Maybe I'm wrong has anyone gone through this before? Anything that will help the pain and general feeling of sluggishness? My head all over is really hurting bad too. Paracetamol not helping.
