Suggest Treatment For Headache And Sinus Infection

I have recently been having headaches, around temples and sinus area which is very unusual for me. Also my eyes have been extremely dry and itchy. I noticed when trying to blow my nose there is a rattling . Like a piece between my nostrils is vibrating. My right nostril almost gets closed off when I blow. I couldn t breathe through my nose last night while sleeping. My right sinus area also seems heavy with congestion. My first thought was a deviated septum. Thoughts?

Neurologist 's  Response
Hello !
I read your question and understand your concern.
In my opinion your troubles are not caused by a neurological problem.
The troubles you are having seem to come from your sinus .
I would like to know if you are allergic.
I would recommend a sinus x ray for sinusitis and a nasal inspection with nasal speculum from a ORL specialist to rule out a possible obstruction of the nasal nostril. The most probable diagnosis may be a nasal polip or a septal deviation. Although septal deviations give recurrent sinusitis and are from birth . So a nasal septum deviation could give problems since childhood.
Hope to have been helpful!
Thank you for using HCM !
Best wishes, Dr. Abaz
