Sinusitis Attack
February 5th, 2010 Posted 3:49 pm
It all started yesterday when my left face felt pain which includes my left temple, heavy pressure on the eye, and toothache. Thinking that it will pass away, I ignored it and continued with my daily routine.
Today, the pain is unbearable and it’s causing discomfort especially at work. I thought immediately that I might have sinusitis since I have colds for more than 2 weeks now. I did a quick research on the net and I am not mistaken. Maxillary sinusitis is what I have which is caused by prolonged colds and allergy.
I was a bit scared for a moment when I remember my aunt who had a surgery because of sinusitis, it gave me the eeky feeling of what if I have the same?!? Geez! I thought of seeing a doctor right away to diagnose me properly, but from what I have learned, my case can still be solved by OTC. Amoxicillin 3x a day will help to better the condition together with more water intake. In case the condition gets worse, consult an otolaryngologist immediately for proper medication.
I hope and I am keeping my fingers crossed that this pain will go away soon, I don’t want to see the doctor, I am afraid
