Question by rosebud: Anyone have a sure fire home remedy for sinus pain with a cold (no fever)?
I can’t take decongestants because of bp meds. I’ve taken Corcidin HBP for colds and Excedrin, but the headache and facial pain just won’t go away. A hot shower gave me relief for about 15 minutes. It’s been two days now, and it’s not getting any better. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
I think I’ll go out and pick up a neti pot. It seems that many of you have had success with it. Thank you all for your answers.

Question by Mom2Max: Can anyone offer any pain relief suggestions?
Wrong category, I know – but nobody is in the health category.
I thought I had a toothache. It hurt badly and was causing my sinses to hurt. I went to the dentist. He did an x-ray and found nothing wrong with my tooth, however my sinses were cloudy. I went to my GP (this was yesterday) he gave me a nasal spray, antibiotics, and a steroid pill for the sinus infection and a steroid shot.
My tooth is still killing me though! I guess my sinses had become inflamed and they were pressing on the root of the tooth. Nothing I take will get rid of the tooth pain. Any suggestions?
Again – sorry for posting this here.
Yes, I have tried tylenol, I have even taken 3 ibuprofen. Nothing seems to help. UGH. This is driving me crazy.

Question by it’s up to you: Has anyone had sinus surgery?
I have TERRIBLE sinus problems and i’ve had them for years!! However, I know longer have insurance so by the time my doctor told me I needed to go to a specialist and have surgery I could no longer go. I’m hoping I will have insurance soon. I need to get this surgery ASAP!!! I have suffered from migraines for years, but this sinus trouble makes it worse. It seems as though I always have a headache. It seems as though my vision is changing also. I wouldn’t know how to act if I didn’t have sinus problems, because i’ve had problems with my sinuses so long. Does the surgery work and give relief? Did you have it done at a same day surgery center? I feel like i’m DYING!!! And for people out there that think your sinuses can’t cause real problems they are kidding themselves!!!
