Is Constant Head Ache Because Of Coughing Due To Sinus Infection Or Something Else?
Hi. I have been sick with a sinus infection for about a week. I was prescribed antibiotics and a pill for coughing. Yesterday the back of my head started to hurt everytime I coughed. Today its a constant ache in the back of my head and hurts worse when I bend over. Is this just from coughing or something else? Thanks

Hello
I reviewed the history.
It seems that you are having constant headache associated with sinus infection.
Sinus infection is known to cause headache because of blockage of the sinus.
The treatment of your headache requires treatment for your sinus infection.
Hence I advice you to consult ENT doctor for further examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
