Question:
My head hurts when i blow my nose!!?
why does it hurt on the left side of my head when i blow my nose? its like a really tight almost unbearable pressure on the front portion of my head on the left side only..i've had a stuffy nose the past week and a postnasal drip aswell..
please help!
Answers:
It sounds like it could be a sinus infection. When you blow your nose you increase the pressure in your sinuses, if they are infected or irritated this could result in pain. It's possible to have an infection in only one side - which is why only the left side hurts.
Your doctor can take a swab of the postnasal drip to see if it's an infection that requires antibiotics.
