long sinus infection


Question Posted Tuesday May 22 2007, 12:51 am

For about three months, i've been having a cough on and off (i think it's most gone now, though) and pressure in my head, eyes and nose. My face also swells, which is what bothers me the most. I went to the dr. like, last week maybe and she gave me some antibiotics. I took them for five days and now i'm off them, but the pressure and swelling continues. The pressure is annoying and i hate how i look and feel with the swelling in my face. Does anyone know what i should do? Are there any sinus medications or anything that would help with the swelling and pressure.. specifically the swelling?

Thanks

I unfortunately have the same problem as you. I haven't been well since January with tons of different illnesses, and now it's a sinus infection that i've had for a month. You could be suffering from Pollen allergies. When doctors say it's a sinus infection they probably aren't sure what the cause of it is... so try taking allegra every day (it does a good job after you've been taking it for a while- like even if it doesn't help you at first KEEP TAKING IT) and take motrin for your swelling pain- and remember to drink tons of fluids.

i hope i helped
