Question by Sharon: I think I have tmj and terrible headache! Help?
I have horrible headaches (sometime with nausea) and sometimes they turn into migraines. I have been diagnosed with sinus infections, ear infections….you name it. I have been on vicodin for a while and that doesn’t even seem to help. Any advice out there? I go to the dentist on Tues an am hoping that I can get some relief!

Question by TwinkaTee: Any advice on how to cure my cold/allergies/flu – WHATEVER?!?!?!?
I have been sick since Sunday night. My major symptoms are stuffy nose, pain in my sinuses, fatigue, ears are itchy, and sometimes I have a sore throat. I thought it might be allergies, so I took Claritin for 3 days, with no relief. Beginning Wed night, I took Nyquil and as of this moment, I AM WORSE than yesterday. I have no fever, so it is not an infection. Does anyone have any ideas on how to treat this??

Question by Buster: Where is this conjunctivitis coming from?
I’ve had a few bouts of conjunctivitis this past year. A couple of recent cases have lead to debilitating sinus pain. There are several factors that I think may all be involved.
My doctor diagnosed the last case of conjunctivitis (at the time I thought was just a blocked tear duct). In all of my cases it’s the same eye (right), the eye is not red at all and the only symptom is a watery eye that may lead to sinus pain. I’ve noticed that just keeping the eye closed brings a good deal of relief (especially from any sinus pressure).
One question I have: is this conjunctivitis that leads to a sinus infection or is this a sinus infection that manifests itself in conjunctivitis? I ask this since I left a case of conjunctivitis untreated and it developed into a nasty sinus infection – oral antibiotics made me better in a day. Another case I treated early with prescribed antibiotic drops – although this kept things from getting worse, the symptoms didn’t go away until about a week after the drops were used up. Very confusing.
Other factors: I have chronic autoimmune hepatitis (is my conjunctivitis autoimmune too?). I have chronic dermatitis around my nose and I treat this with Psoriasin (is this maybe toxic conjunctivitis that I have?).

Answer by Susie Q Conjunctivitis is a contagious infection of the eye It can be spread from one person to another by touching then say you rub or touch your eye after someone else with conjunctivitis has touched a surface It has nothing to with sinuses Symptoms of conjunctivitis can include a red eye swollen & teary eye. Can also temporarily affect vision. Closing your eyes may relieve pressure of sinus but again has nothing to do with conjunctivitis I would check out the possibility of allergies
