What Could Cause Headache ,cough And Swelling Of Eye?
I am sneezing, coughing, and have lost my voice completely. My head hurts, my chest hurts and my eyes are red and swollen. They get sealed shut during the night to where I can't even open them until I use a warm rag to get them to open. The pain is moving into my ears. Could this all be due to allergies??

Hello, Welcome to HCM, Symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection along with pain in chest, head and eyes are the classical sign of a viral infection. Laryngitis leading to change or reduced voice along with eye symptoms are suggesting of viral infection rather than a allergy. Burning sensation in lungs and head also suggests viral infection. Thank you.
