Can Crying While Having Cold Cause Sinus?
I was wondering if crying a lot while you have a cold can result in a sinus infection? I get colds a lot, none of which have resulted in a sinus infection until recently. The only difference I can think of is I have been crying a lot. Are the two related?

Hello
There are so many myth about diseases and their relation with different things.
Sinus infection get due to any virus, bacteria or other causative pathogens i.e. due to organism .
While crying is a different thing , so how could crying attract bacteria or virus , you think yourself.
Allergy is a different thing as this caused by different sort of allergen as due to duct , mite , pollen , hay , fodder , dusting powder , smoking or smokes , humidity mold etc.
So take care.
Good luck.
