sinus problems

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hi can anyone help me. Im 29 year old male and suffer health anxiety. For the past 3 weeks almost ive been having sinus problems. It all started when i waa having a weird cracking sensation in my bottom jaw next to my ear the other symptoms followed when i noticed sum pressure above my eye tooth (canine) near my nose . No pain just sinuses kept blocking up.i went to emergency hospital as i also suffer health anxiety and they said it was a sinus infection so prescribed me anti biotics which i finished after a week but during that time i had my eye tooth removed as the dentist done a xray and said there was some infection above the eye tooth. Finished my anti biotics still no joy so went back to docs and told him my sinuses still felt weird and weak....no pain r anything also i started having abit of weird sensation on the top of head which he checked my eyes ears strength ect and he wasnt to concerned. He prescribed me some different anti biotics which im half way through now. But still recently im feeling really scared and think ive got a horrible disease r something and lookin on google which i shudnt. Im getting really weird cracking and popping sounds in my lower jaw next to my temple and been getting weird pain tension in certain parts of head and my top jaw is feeling very tense and someone has mention tmj because of my jaw and this condition can affect your sinuses to. And ive had a stye the last couple ov days which seems to be going away now. Im sick of feeling like this it seems to be one thing after another i feel ok one minute and just as i feel im getting better something else happens. Please tell mw sumone has been through similar to this as im really scared and im feeling clumbsy and not myself just constant worrying that im dying r something. Please

    Have been through a similar though and mine is silent acid refluxll which causes the sinus thing. If you deal with the refluxl the sinus thing clears up. Most doctors dont think of it or acknoiwledge it. The worrying is awful isnt it

      Have more or less given up on doctors, they always seem to get it wrong or not listen properly or not look at the whole picture. Find out far more online by researching. Better to take control and help yourself. Try bicarbonate of soda. Just a pinch of it in a glass of water. Costs pennies, helps a lot of people. Even if it does not help with this it makes your system more alkaline which helps you generally. Win win situation.
