SYMPTOMS FROM SINUS INFECTION
Sinus infections usually begin with the symptoms of a cold (for example, a runny nose, occasional cough and/or mild fever), and then develop into pain and pressure in the sinus cavities. About 7 to 10 days after initial cold-like symptoms other symptoms develop that suggest you may have a sinus infection. Sinus infection symptoms include
- Bad Breath
- Puffiness Around The Eyes
- Stuffy or runny nose
- Facial pain or pressure
- Sore throat
- A yellowish-Greenish Nasal Discharge That May Have an Odor
- Fever
- Headache
- Loss of the sense of smell
- Coughing
- Fatigue & Weakness
- Postnasal drop (mucus which drops down the throat from the nose)
If you develop persistent fever or have a history of recurrent or chronic sinusitis or if you have sinus symptoms that don’t improve or get worse, you should contact your doctor.
WHEN SHOULD I CALL MY DOCTOR FOR A SINUS INFECTION?
Seek medical care immediately if you develop:
- Severe headaches
- Shortness of breath
- Swelling in the forehead and/or eyes
- Stiff neck
- Confusion
