Question: As previously stated I have a blocked left maximallary sinus and partial on the right, ENT doctor put me of steriod nasal spray and FESS for a couple of months, and steriod table for one week. I am getting dizzy when looking down, so would like a relief from problem. Said I would probably need surgery as my septum is crooked and will need to be chiseled then drainage could occur, please help

Can you suggest a relief from the pain and what I can do in the meantime? They have suggested till mid Feb to see me again,to see if the abovementioned works. Do you know any effective suggestions for the at least partial unblockage so that I can stop being so dizzy and can at least work properly? Does the strange sensations around the mouth, cheeks & face from the sinuses? What does the surgery entail, and as I have had recent surgery 3 mths ago is this a problem, I also have a neck problem Thank you

Hi have been getting pain in back of head starting from base of neck to top of head which is very stabbing. Have been getting dizzy with sensations going across face and around eyes when leaning over, is this the sinisus?

I have been both to a Neurologist and an ENT doctor. The Neurologist said that there is nothing wrong there except maybe Fybrimolgia. The ENT doctor said I will need to have sinuses drained. I am concerned as I have been thru many doctors, and the stressing part is the pain at the back of the head and the sensations going through the front of my face when I look down and being dizzy. I also have sensation going around my eyes. I have had another MRI which shows now difference, so what is wrong with me?

i I have had a MRI done very recently and it states that the trigeminal nerve, 7th & 8th cranial nerve complexes and the abducens nerve and otherwise normal in the cisternal portions. Conclusion: there is no suggestion of a brain parenchymal abnorality. In particular no focus of gliosis or oedema. On the limited imaging through the posterior ofssa, the trigeminal nerve is normal in the cisternal portion and within Meckel's cave.. 7th & 8th cranial nerve complexes are also normal within their cisternal portions with no inflammation seen within the mastoid air cells. The abducens nerve is also grossly normal in its cisternal portion. Noted however is sinusitis involving the maximallary sinuses, worse in the left and mild in the right maxillary sinus? the source of the facial pain. No suggestion of a mass seen within the curtaneous tissue of the cheek or orbits to implicate infraorbital nerve pathology on the limited imaging of the facial cutaneous region. No intracranial pathology. On cervical spine there are minor disc bulges seen of the cervical spine at the c5/6 and the C7T1 level abutting the tecal sac mildly anteriorly. There however remains capacious central canal. No cord signal abnormality seen to suggest evidence of myelomalacia cord oedema. craniocervical junction is normal. Minor disc desiccation seen throughout all the cervical discs. No annular fissures/tears seen of the cervical discs. Their conclusion: Minor disc desiccation see through the cervical levels. Minor disc bulges seen at the lower cervical levels as described abutting the tecal sac anteriorly at the above described levels. There is however no resultant central canal, lateral recess or foraminal compromise. No cord signal abnormality to suggest myelomalacia or focus of demyelination. No impingement seen of the cervical nerve roots to suggest cervical radiculopathy. The vertebral arteries show normal flow voids. Sorry to give you such a long description but I thought this my help.
