Hi,
This is one of the common problems people encounter when they have sinus infection (sinusitis). This happens when the secretions from the sinus trickle down into the throat the opening the tube connecting nose and the ear (eustachian tube) will get irritated and the sensation of crawling of worms is felt. Drink plenty of warm water and take steam inhalations. Hope you will feel better with this. Any more doubts you are welcome
Regards
Dr. Naveen Kumar
