Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I ve recently had some sinus issues after a cold. Taking some regular over the counter medicine is clearing it up, sinuses feel bruised though. If I tap my forehead or near my eye feels the same as a bruise. Quite a strange sensation as I ve had sinusitis before, but after the symptoms go (e.g. runny nose) the other issues go too. Is this bruised feeling a symptom of anything else?
Regarding your question the symptoms you mentioned suggest Sinusitis. For treatment course of Antibiotic, decongestant like Sudafed (Pseudoephedrine) and antihistamine like Zyrtec is recommended. Steam inhalation, bed rest, adequate fluids, avoiding dust helps in quick resolution of this problem.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Wajahat Baig, Internal Medicine Specialist
