Sinus Headache:

Sinus headaches is one of the less common types of headaches. According to G. Brent Lucas, BA headaches caused from sinus infection are usually associated with a low-grade fever and can be detected from an x-ray of the sinus cavity. In addition, a sinus headache normally occurs as a gnawing pain over or under the eyes.



The affected area may be painful when touched. Sometimes a blocked nostril or stuffy feeling leads many sufferers to self-diagnose the condition, as sinus headache. However, this is not true in most cases. Therefore, you should check with a doctor before concluding that your headache is caused from sinus headache.
