[size=4][b]Blocked Sinus - How Do I Get Rid of Acute Sinus Pain? - Say Goodbye to Acute Sinus Pain[/b][/size][hr]Here are some useful tips to bid adieu to acute sinus pain. First, let's analyze whether it is a chronic or a simple case of sinus. There are three major divisions of sinusitis - acute, sub-acute and chronic. Acute is basically bacterial in origin and lasts for less than four weeks, sub acute types last for four to twelve weeks, chronic more than 12 weeks. They are left over symptoms caused by cold or flu.

Conclusion Finally it all boils down to having a healthy lifestyle. Take ample supplements to stay healthy. As recommended by researchers - Vitamin C: 1,000 to 2,000 mg. daily and Vitamin A: 10,000 I.U. daily can help you get rid of acute sinus pain.

[list][*]Many people often overlook the impacts that sinus has on their body.[*]Often, some doctors might not give a correct diagnosis when sinus could be the main cause for a blinding headache.[*]This usually happens when the sinus are inflamed.[*]These headaches are called secondary headaches when they are caused by something like a common cold or some other existing medical condition.[*]If the headache is the medical issue itself, it is called a primary headache.[*]These too are often caused by something else.[/list]

Once you have found out the root of the problem, there are many ways to treat it. Unfortunately, when they are caused by the common cold, only time can heal the condition. There are,however, various pain relief medicines available. Although there was a lot of fluctuation in the writing styles of we independent writers, we have come up with an end product on Sinusitis worth reading! Wink

Treating the symptoms of sinus headaches may be enough to get you through the milder cases. Place a hot or cold towel or a compress to help with the pain and swelling. You can also purchase nasal sprays to treat the problem and it can be quite effective. Do not go above the prescribed limit as you could aggravate the condition.

[size=large][b]Sinuses are Located in a Few Different Places[/b][/size][hr]It will encompass the area above the nose and behind the eyes. The mucus and tissue in these cavities can become full or irritated, causing much pain. There are occasions when the cavities are filled to the brim and intense pressure is created, causing pain.

[list][*]When the sinus cavities are full and cause a problem, it will resolve itself when the cavities are drained.[*]It is useful to try inhaling steam as a start to reduce the level of fluids.[*]Antibiotics are needed to lessen the amount of fluid in the sinuses.[*]If you have recurring sinus headaches, sit down with your doctor to determine the best treatment options.[/list]

Sometimes a more serious condition is indicated by a sinus headache. A deviated septum is genetic problem and the cavities tend to keep more moisture and fluids than it should. This is one type of sinusitis. If diagnosed with this condition, it can be corrected through surgical methods. It is only because that we are rather fluent on the subject of Sinus that we have ventured on writing something so influential on Sinus like this!

Be careful that you do not select one that will actually worsen the affects. Acetaminophen or aspirins are useful treatments, but it is easy to use too much of it. MOH (medication overuse headache) is something that affects people that overuse their medications, whether it be over-the-counter or prescription.

[list][*]Rare cases, sinus headaches can also be caused by allergic reactions of various kinds.[*]Certain things in food or in the air could trigger a reaction in those not normally affected by sinus headaches.[*]These causes usually affect only a small portion of the population. [/list]

[size=large][b]The Sinus Headache is Unique in It's Location[/b][/size][hr]It primarily affects the face, but can also affect the entire top of the head if the sinus infection is left untreated too long. You can actually make the sinus headache hurt worse by pushing on your sinus cavities such as your cheekbones and forehead. I wouldn't recommend doing it though as the pain spikes severely and does not go back down for hours!

While waiting for your antibiotic to kick in and stop the pain, there are some things you can do to give relief from the sinus headache. Lie back and put a warm washcloth on your forehead, eyes and cheeks several times a day. Take aspirin, acetaminophen or ibuprofen also after making sure there will be no drug interaction with your sinus infection prescription. Use a hot steam vaporizer in your bedroom or lie down in the bathroom with the shower running on hot water. You can lie back in the tub with the shower running but I wouldn't recommend it as the pressure from the water hitting your face would cause the pain to be much worse.

[size=large][b]The Sinus Headache is Caused by a Sinus Infection or Sinusitis[/b][/size][hr]Since there are several sinus cavities and locations, pain from a sinus headache may be in all or just a few locations. Pain from the sinus cavities is felt in the cheek area, above and behind the eyes and top of the head. Getting on an antibiotic can give relief the next day.

[list][*]I've read that sinus infections rarely cause sinus headaches, and I can't help but wonder if that author had ever experienced a sinus infection?[*]I had chronic sinus infections for over twenty years until I had sinus surgery a few years ago and an overly large turbinate was removed.[*]I have not had a sinus infection, or very painful sinus headache for three years now.[*]I can tell you though that from my experience with twenty years of sinus infections, every single one of them produced a sinus headache. [/list]

Is important to drink lots of liquids to help flush out the sinuses. Use a saline nasal spray a few times a day to try and open up the sinuses to help them drain faster. You may be quite nauseous from the sinus infection but do try to eat some soup and applesauce. You don't want to add a hunger headache on top of the sinus headache. Also sleep as much as you can. Sleep helps the body heal, and you can't feel pain when you're asleep! Sometimes, what we hear about Sinuses can prove to be rather hilarious and illogical. This is why we have introduced this side of Sinuses to you.

[list][*]The pain from a sinus headache was slightly less painful, or as painful as a migraine headache.[*]Bending over made the sinus headache so painful that I almost passed out.[*]It was at the spur of the moment that we ventured to write something about Sinus Infections.[*]Such is the amount of matter that is available on Sinus Infections.[/list]

[size=large][b]Treating Rhinitis in Many Ways is Similar to Treating Sinusitis[/b][/size][hr]Decongestants and antihistamines may be prescribed for patients with bronchial asthma who do not experience adverse excessive dryness and "plugging" of the bronchial tubes. A saline nasal mist can help provide moisture to the nasal lining. Intranasal topical corticosteroid sprays (beclomethasone, budesonide, triamcinolone, mometasone, flunisolide, fluticasone) and cromolyn sodium are extremely helpful in treating rhinitis. These agents do not produce excessive dryness and may be preferred over decongestants and antihistamines. Adverse effects of topical corticosteroid nasal sprays include minor irritation or stinging and, rarely, bleeding from the nasal lining.

[size=large][b]And/or Taste[/b][/size][hr]The importance of nasal polyps is related to their ability to block the nasal and sinus passages, which may also be the source of poor drainage of sinuses that leads to recurring sinus infections. The presence of nasal polyps in adult patients who are not allergic often identifies a more severe group of asthmatics. This group also has a greater hypersensitivity to aspirin and related medications .

[size=large][b]What are Nasal Polyps?[/b][/size][hr]Nasal polyps are fleshy growths or extensions of the nasal and sinus lining. They are common in patients with bronchial asthma and may occur with or without allergy. They often occur in patients older than age forty who are not allergic but who have severe rhinitis. Common symptoms are constant nasal stuffiness as well as a loss or reduction of the senses of smell

Let us first learn where it is located to know more about what is cavernous sinus. The cavernous sinus is called the lateral sellar compartment and it is located inside the human head. The cavity is made up of a set of veins within a thin wall. It is seen on one side of the temporal bone and sphenoid bone of the skull. Big Grin.

[list][*]So what is cavernous sinus cavity?[*]It is similar to other sinus by being placed in the cavity of the cranium.[*]It is combination of trochlear nerve, maxillary nerve, oculomotor nerve and ophthalmic nerve.[*]On a flat plane it is comprised of abducens nerve and internal carotid artery and sympathetic plexus.[*]All these give it a very complicated structure and character.[*]Finally it can be concluded as a hollow of a skull holding a number of nerves.[/list]

[size=large][b]The Pituitary Gland Lies in Between the Cavernous Sinus Pair[/b][/size][hr]The cavernous sinus compresses if there is a growth in the pituitary gland ultimately leading to tumors and opthalmpplegia (loss of ophthalmic sense) and maxillary nerve compression leads to maxillary sensory loss. Although there was a lot of fluctuation in the writing styles of we independent writers, we have come up with an end product on Sinusitis worth reading!

The symptoms found are blindness, ocular and conjunctival congestion, ophthalmoplegia, elevation of ocular pressure and pain. The signs may be one-sided or two-sided; they may be sharp and progress slowly. When a child shows a flicker of understanding when talking about Cavernous Sinus, we feel that the objective of the meaning of Cavernous Sinus being spread, being achieved.

[size=large][b]What is Cavernous Sinus Thrombosis?[/b][/size][hr]Cavernous sinus thrombosis seldom occurs now days. Ten percent of people may be affected by blindness in this case. Corneal ulceration is caused due to lid closure. Due to contact of the cavernous sinus with other venous channels, an infection may occur. It has to be diagnosed clinically and no lab culture is prevalent.

[size=large][b]How to Detect[/b][/size][hr]CT scan is taken to get an idea of bone and calcium. MRI provides features of soft tissues inside the sinus and the surrounding structures. Orbital views are also needed, seeing superior and inferior orbital veins helps in diagnosing the venous pressure. Based on the findings further treatment could be given.
