BAD pain behind eyes and on nose!?

Question

Hi there :)

Ive had dull temple headaches for years now due to (i think) anxiety and depression. However, for the past 4 or 5 days I have had quite bad pain behind my eyes that is worst when I look up or down. Along with this, I have also had pain in the bridge of my nose for about 6 months.. it aches when I sing or talk a lot for some reason?

I have had the eye pains since I started doing revising (but not loads) so could this be a stress thing? And could it be related to the nose pain? I'm not bunged up or anything!

It's just the eye thing is making me feel very very sleepy..even though I have slept well!

Any advice? My DR hasnt got an appointment for agggesss!

p.s. i think i havr discovered also i tense my jaw a lot.. could his be a cause?

Answer 1

It could be from tensing your jaw or it could be a sinus infection. (It sounds like a mix of a lot of things.) Just call your doctor and see what they say. You might not even have to go in.

Good luck!.

Answer 2

It sounds like Sinusitis.
