Right maxillary sinusitis

2018-07-18 14:02:26
I am suffering from severe left hand side headache from last 25 days. The headache occurs only on the left hand side of my head. When I visited neurology consultant, he advised me for CT scan head contrast. In CT scan I was diagnosed with right maxillary sinusitis and he advised me to consult with ENT specialist. I also had some minor tooth infection, which i recovered by GIC filling. What is the problem and what is the treatment.

Sinusitis is incidental funding for your case. It's not significant. You get left sided pain, sinusitis is right sided. Most probably it is not causing the headache.
Health Tips
Your symptoms look like migraine. Regularise your food habit, sleep, avoid stress. Avoid coffee, Foods with MSG. You can try medicines for migraine after meeting a physician.
