sinus headache areas - #18709

Khushi

I am dealing with this awful sinus headache that just won't go away, and I feel like it's got a mind of its own! A few days ago, I woke up feeling fine, but by the afternoon, this pain hit me right in the sinus headache areas like a ton of bricks. I thought it was just a normal headache at first, but soon I noticed the pressure building behind my eyes and nose, you know? Like, I even tried steaming and sinus rinses, but nothing seems to help. It's like the sinus headache areas are having a party in my face and I wasn't invited. Ugh! I'm thinking it might be allergies acting up or something, but I can't remember the last time I had this kind of pain. I took some over-the-counter meds, but they just barely dulled the sinus headache areas, and honestly, I feel like I'm going crazy here with this constant throbbing. What do you think could be causing it? I mean it seems to be mostly focused around my forehead and cheeks... Should I push for a scan or wait it out? Any tips? Thanks!
