Thanks for sharing this marvelous video. I'm very pleased to see this video. I enjoy this site - it's so useful and helpful.

I definitely have it. I have 3 of the symptoms mentioned here.

Like the way you get to the point.

Thank you Dr.. for this information..

I had a sinus infection a few weeks ago. I caught a very mild cold from one of our other employees. Normally I just get better within two days. I didn't even feel bad enough to stay home from work. But while at work, where I was delivering feed and hay somewhere, it rained pretty hard and it was cold out. I think that combo gave my immune system a punch because right after I was getting over the cold, I got my sinus infection. The sinus infection was 100x worse than the cold. I had to miss Christmas. My lips got so chapped that they were crusted completely white. Losing sleep was the worst thing. Right now I'm mostly over it but the sinuses in my head are still a little plugged. At least I can sleep now.

Ive had a Sinus infection twice now and my first time was 100x worse than the second time. My first infection lasted over a month and the second lasted maybe 8 days. You should take plenty of steamy showers,plenty of sleep and nasal irrigation with a neti pot.Also take de congestion tablets like sudafed to relax your sinus so the green slime is constantly dripping out of your nose. I think the key to getting rid of the infection is to make sure your sinus are open as much as possible throughout the day and once they are open breathe in some eucalyptus and or tee tree oil,put it on your clothes and on your pillow so you are constantly breathing it in. After doing all of this after about day 5 i could start eating properly and not feeling as lethargic as compared to the first 3 days. Also take ibuprofen for the facial swelling and pain this helps with getting sleep and feeling more comfortable. I think going forward if you feel that one or both of your nostrils are blocked IMMEDIATELY get something to help you get decongested, sudafed nasal spray or tablets help great. The infection starts when your sinsus are blocked and cannot drain so do sinus facial massages also to try drain the sinus these help great.

Thank Doctor for your information

Anxiety, clogged ears n a bit of light dizziness. Clear mucous..clogged nose on n off with minimal drainage.. face n head pressure.

thank you

I have a question, I have A couple simtums like a very inflared nose and the feeling that there’s a lot of snot in your nose but dosent come out, I know it’s been three years since you posted this video But could you get back with me on that I’m wandering if I have a sinus infection

Like I don’t have any of the smelling symptoms it just started on Sunday it’s just like a quick nose pain and then if I squeeze my nose it hurts a lil and it runs just a lil bit anyone know if I have this or if I have sum else

3 out of 4. No loss of smell or a diminished smell. I do have ear pain, feeling that i need to pop my ears and tinnitus. Been almost 2 weeks.. looks like I need to make a doctor's appointment

I have them every winter is that normal

It's been going on for 9 to 10 days now. When will the mucus stop? I blow my nose and it feels like it shoots over to my ear.

Hi doc i am sinus allergy and its been draining in my throat everyday its hard to sleep and i feel head tight band around mu temple i dont know if its sinus infection pls. Help me know what it is.

I have had a sinus issue since covid march 2020. Only now nearly 3 years later after spending loads of money after nhs doing nothing. I've just started 2 months worth of treatment after seeking out and paying for a top head and neck surgeon. Our nhs in the UK is totally broken.

I had a sore throat but now my left nostril is leaking a little and it literally smells like poo. My wife even smelled my nose. No green coming out just watery. But it’s the smell that’s crazy. Any help?

I have a burning sensations in my head and find it hard to focus as am always forgetting stuff what could this be Dr

It’s sooooo bad. I’ve had this for 6 days now. Headaches, pressure in my face, congestion, green mucus, my teeth hurt, my smell was lost and I lost hearing in both ears for 5 days. 😩 I prefer Covid honestly.

I have had all these symptoms for about a week it's miserable as hell 😩

I had facial swelling, teeth hurt, ears too..They say a CT scan would help..without contrast..its been like this for over a month. What are your thoughts on the CT scan, my insurance might not cover this. Sometimes when I rub my itchy eyes the pain shoots to my teeth, frustrating!

Don’t know if I have one or Tmj issues. Can you develop ear and teeth pain on one side (left) due to Sinus?

Hi, I think I have a sinus infection. It’s causing me to hold something near my cheek bone and near my teeth also varying which nostril is blocked. Sort of feels like a dull ache. But my right eye is really irritated, it’s like dry and quite painful , bad when I blink. I’m not sure what light sensitivity really qualifies as light sensitivity (if that makes sense). But I think I have light sensitivity. I have a deviated septum. Which I assume is the main cause in all this. I’ve had these symptoms for 9 days and counting. Pls someone help

i started having really bad anxiety out of nowhere on october 13th and so i found a local mental health place where i live. but they told me that because the anxiety came on very suddenly and also has only happened one other time in my life that its most likely a symptom of a medical condition. they told me it sounds like im having a sinus problem (i did not know that a sinus issue could cause crippling anxiety) but any ways once they said that i told them that i have had a deviated septum sense i was like 8 years old (im 25) and i asked would that be something to worry about and they said yes. so we started looking at sinus infection as a cause. the problem is i only have a few symptoms of sinus infection. im coughing up a ton of clear/white, solid white and sometimes yellow mucus, the bags under my eyes seem to be swollen, im getting headaches that feel like they are behind my left eye and also in between my eyes. it has not come out my nose nearly as much as it has my throat and i have no tenderness in my face. i also have smell and only mild congestion. idk what to think cuz it seems to me that the i dont have a sinus infection but i cant get to the doctor will the 14th of dec

went to the dentist and got an xray. he said he noticed that my sinuses are about 80 percent blocked. my head always hurts and i also have a deviated septum. doesnt help that i have asthma also lol. any suggestions other that constantly putting vicks under my nose?

Every time I lean my head over I smell rotting dead fish and yellow fluid comes out of my right nostril only. I have a bad toothache on the upper right side and think an infection spread from my tooth to my sinus. Smelland drainage only happens when I lean my head over. It's so crazy... Also have swollen tonsil on right side and migraine pain right side too. Going to dentist tomorrow...

I have most of the symptoms and I also have breathing difficulty plus dry cough / wet cough.

My mom thinks I have this, but my nose only hurts and my throat has been sore. My nose has only ran a few times and it mostly did when I sneezed and at points when I've cried because I'm in a lot of pain and stuff, obviously.

Been having sinus problems for 4 months, headaches, jaw pain, ear popping and neck pain and my doctor keeps prescribing me allergy medicine and nasal sprays that don’t help what should I do?

At this point I really don’t know what to do. I’ve been battling with mucus, it comes out through my mouth. I don’t know if it’s from my the back of my nose or my throat, it comes out in green, yellowish and sometime white and it comes out thick as well. It’s been going on for about two years. The doctor said it allergy but I don’t he’s right this time. I’ve taken different antibiotics but none has been able to work for me. The mucus comes out black/ brown sometimes. No cough, no pains just thick mucus. I notice my nose has one smell. I smell everything the same most especially body odor which wasn’t there before. Do you think I’m suffering from Sinuses? I forgot to mention, I did an X-ray from my face down to my chest but nothing has been found wrong with me. Pls can you assist me?

For the past 4 weeks I’ve been having bad sinus pain with a stuffy nose and when I shower I get tiny bits of white sticky mucus come out I’m very uncomfortable i don’t know what to do

Have this 2 years post covid w DAD.

Am really having a bad sinus infection

I have all those symptoms except for the runny nose and it’s been going on for like four weeks

does a sinus infection make the top of head have pressure and poping on the top of head

Guess this is what i have. I have a pain under my left eye in the cheekbone. A pain that is worse than both times ive broken limbs. It feels like if someone loaded a toothache and a ear infection into a shotgun and shot me in the head with it. Haven't slept now for 4 days. Pain relievers does nothing. Luckily, i am going to the the hospital tomorrow for a followup of a unrelated case at the ENT

i have all the symptoms -

what’s the difference between havythis and or Covid

What is the best treatment? Antibiotics?

How about pressure on the temple?

isaac reference

A

Yup I have the symptoms that smell is so disgusting 🤮

In pain omg teeth gum etc 😫

Noone even touches having a sinus that is completely blocked and prevents you from breathing at all, like... Nothing is getting through there, not even Afrin. No video on KZfaq talks about this being related to a sinus infection or what it could be. Instead all these videos talk about it being "difficult to breath". Difficult? Try being forced to mouth breath only to have your nose start dripping like water while still being stopped up like being plugged up with a solid mass. Why.... Why doesn't anyone bring this up? Facial massages do nothing, tons of vitamin C, D3, Quercetin, colodial silver, tons of water and yet nothing, no relief but just the sudden onset of dripping water from the impacted nostril that is impossible to blow!

In my own experience i feel sinus infection is way way way more worse than getting a covid 😩 i cant get rid of it without antibiotics

Sinus infections cause brain fog ? Inability to remember well ?

I have lost my sense of smell and taste in November its been 6 months now and i have no other symptoms.. Do i have sinus?

The Dr. Said it's allergies but I think it's a sinus infection I've had it for 1-1/2months burning ,itchy,runny, congestion,..sorta itchy in ears

Uhhg i have one after having covid, it sucks
