Is it a Sinus Headache?

When you have a headache, all you want is to get rid of it. And when you know where your pain is coming from, you'll have a better idea about how to treat it.

Sinus headaches are usually characterized by a throbbing pain in your forehead or behind your eyes that may increase when you lean forward or lie down. You may also experience pressure between your eyes or tenderness in your cheekbones, a sore throat, runny nose or cough.

Why sinus headaches happen:

Nasal passages can become swollen due to allergies or cold, which can create sinus congestion and pain.

What Next?

Find temporary relief with an over-the-counter pain reliever with a decongestant, such as Tylenol Sinus Congestion and Pain. You may also find comfort by keeping your nasal passages moist using a vaporizer or humidifier.

Preventing Sinus Headaches and Pain

Sinus headaches and pain can hit allergy sufferers, but sticking to a few simple strategies can help minimize your exposure to allergens and lower your risk of getting a sinus headache.

Things To Try Indoors:

- Improve your air quality with an air filtration system, HEPA filters and a dehumidifier to help prevent mold growth.

- Keep things tidy by vacuuming frequently, washing linens in hot water and drying them indoor immediately.

- Decorate thoughtfully, avoiding unwashable dust magnets such as venetian blinds, curtains, rugs and carpets.

- Be conscientious when it comes to your fluffy friends if you’re allergic to them. Keep pets out of your bedroom and delegate when you can, letting a loved one tend to litter and cages.

Things To Try Outdoors:

- Plan ahead and check weather forecasts and pollen counts before you head out. On hot, dry, windy days it may be best to stay in.

- Avoid going out in the morning, as pollen counts tend to be the highest early in the day.

- Keep allergens outdoors where they belong. Shower and change if you’ve been outdoors for an extended period of time to wash pollen that may have collected on your hair or skin.
