Does Frequent Migraines Result In Sinus Infection?

Hi, I am a 53 year old female who has multiple migrianes in a month, I am on a muscle relaxer and topamax, I also have a pinched nerve at the c5-c6 root. I get injections into that site periodically they dont help if I get a sinus infection. Why does a sinus infection trigger a migriane, sorry I know I am spelling that wrong.

yes a sinus infection can cause migraine. And also stress,low vision, cervical spondylitis. Are you having more than six to seven episode per month than you should take some medication for prevention of migraine. If your stress is low and you take good sound sleep than migraine can be avoided. There are certain foods like chocolate which can trigger migraine attack.
