Suggest Treatment For Nausea, Fever And Sinus Headache

For the last three weeks I ve been having terrible headaches. At first I thought they were my normal sinus headaches, with the sinus pain down into my jaw, behind my eyes, with the sensitivity to light, sound and nausea. Except I haven t had a fever or a cough. I had nasal congestion and I have a little bit of a runny nose here and there, but the headaches are constant. They are usually during the day, sometimes they come on around 7:30 pm. I tend to wake up without one, but they usually hit anywhere from about 7:30 am forward. The pain is generally over my left side, but I do have pressure and pain over the top of my head and around my right temple. I have had sharp, stabbing pains in the rear of my head on the right side just recently as last night. I ve also had a sharp, stabbing pain in my left ear. That happened yesterday.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of nausea, fever and sinus headache. Well the symptoms you mention in query pointing towards severe sinus infection or travelling of infection through sinuses.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to avoid intake of cold beverages and you should avoid excessive bending forward. You should consult ENT specialist for proper diagnosis without any delay to prevent the further complication. Doctor may order CT scan and nasal endoscopy and prescribe antibiotics amoxicillin or penicillin at least for 7-10 days. You should do warm saline gargles and take decongestant and nasal saline rinses as well. For now take steam thrice a day to relieve the congestion.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
