General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

Your overall history is suggestive of sinus infection and may be related or unrelated brain condition.
Hence I would advise you the following:
Consult an ENT Surgeon.
Nasal Endoscopy.
MRI of nose and brain.
Relevant tests of blood.
All these will give a proper diagnosis.
If medically treated then a course of an antibiotic and anti-inflammatory may help you.
If surgery is advised then go for it.


Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, General Surgeon
