You can get a 'Neilmed' device for flushing the sinus which is excellent. If this doesn't solve the problem you will need to see a GP and if it persists see a rhinologist. It might just be a form of hayfever???
If you should get swelling around the eye it is important to seek immediate medical attention.
Sinus pains can sometimes be the result of teeth problems (the upper molars) as the membrane between the tooth roots and sinus is just 1 to 2 mm wide. Do you have dental problems or have had inplants in the upper molars? If this is a possiblity perhaps try using a desensitising toothpaste such as Sensodyne. If this makes a difference then see a dentist for x-ray etc.
Poor you..I sympathise. I spent years suffering with sinusitis, with (I think) similar pains to those you describe. As a last resort, I decided to cut out dairy products and since then I have had virtually no sinusitis or face/temple/eustachian tube pain. I also find that red wine can bring on sinus pain so I avoid that too. An added benefit is that my asthma is more under control, I get fewer colds and virtually no bronchitis.
I substitute cow's milk with goat's milk; same with butter and cheese and I have sheep's cheese too, so it is not that much of a hardship. I would avoid soya milk though. Good luck!
I too found after giving up dairy my sinus infections cleared up. I used to get sinusitis every month, thought it was somehow linked to hormones, with it very often not clearing up in the weeks between. After nearly 3 yrs of infections, I was found to have polyps and treated with steroids. The hospital refused to recheck whether they'd gone at the end of the treatment? And was given a CAT scan and told it was chronic sinusitis and there was nothing more to be done. I sent for a York Test and it showed dairy to be one of the problems. I gave this up and saw a great improvement. If I retry dairy now I'm unwell within 24 hrs. I tried goats milk about 6wks ago, due to being worried about calcium, but by the 2nd wk of trying it I had sinus and ear problems again, and have just finished a double dose of antibiotics for the latter, 6 was on, so prob wasn't worth it!
I may try lactose free later on, as would like to know if that is the problem, so it could be worth you being tested for that before giving it up straight away?
I have similar to this. I have extreme pain in my to jaw and temple. An attack can last up to an hour, then eases off to dull ache. Feels like horrendous tooth ache. Had teeth checked out, nothing wrong so went to GP and been diagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia. Now on med to control the pain. Long process as have to build up tolerance to them. Been almost 2months now and only occasional attacks. Hope you get sorted.
