Mid october i had sinus infection

Early november i was feeling better. Except alot of pressure in the ears. ENT confirmed it was eustachian tube disfunction

End of november ears started draining. No more ear problem

Early december started feeling pressure/throbbing around the head, forhead and eyes.

Is this still the sinus infection??? Besides the head problem, i am no longer congested or feel sick.

    Hi Hannah I can't answer your question but regarding Eustachian tube and pressure in ears well mine got like that with sinusitis and I had op two weeks ago and it still feels same plus pressure around eyes bridge of nose which I did have before but could be where I had sinus lift

    Anyway with my ears esp right one is still blocked and around the ear into my face feels strange so I think it is to do with my Eustachian tube

    Can I ask do you rinse with saline solution because I do and wonder if water trickles into tube and that's what the pressure feeling is ??

    Is that even possible?

    Anyway I hope someone can answer your question for you xxx
