How Can Pain Behind The Eyes Be Treated?

I am experiencing bad sinus pain. Which started 4 days ago. My cold started 11 days ago. I don t feel like i m getting any better and the pain is really bad behind my eyes. Should I go to the doctor again? Using a heat pack on my face was helping but it s not helping much anymore.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely consult doctor again.
Worsening eye pain is sign of worsening Sinus infection.
So better to consult ENT doctor and get done endoscopic examination of sinuses.
You may need higher antibiotic, painkiller and anti inflammatory drugs.
Application of heat pack on eyes is also beneficial.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these in 5-7 days.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
