Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have muscular pain along with sinusitis . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like rheumatic fever , haemarthrosis or seronegative arthritis . Joint swelling can also occur due to injury cyst like baker's cyst . I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist as well as orthopedic surgeon for proper examination . Doctor may order CT scan for sinusitis and also for knee . ENT specialist may prescribe antibiotics like amoxicillin or penicillin along with decongestant or expectorant . Orthopedic surgeon may prescribe anti inflammatory , muscle relaxant or may recommend surgical removal of cyst .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
