Ct scan is a more detailed investigation than xray.. Believe your scan more.. Headache could be due to many reasons. Sinusitis is only one of them.. A more detailed history can reveal the cause. Please consult online for further evaluation and treatment

Even clear sinuses with nasal obstruction can give rise to headaches which we call "vacuum headaches".
If the headache is only on right side and is associated with nausea and Aura,Migraine should be ruled out.
