What Causes Pain In The Joints While Suffering From Sinusitis?

My Grandson, Kyle-18 yrs., complains of all his joints hurting all the time. This has been going on for a month. He s had blood tests run several times and the doctors still can t come up with an answer. He was given a script for sinus allergy for inflammation and now takes 3 ibuprophen twice a day from which he gets a little relief. His family lives in San Antonio and currently most of them get sinus infections because of the live oak pollen in the air. Could a sinus infection cause such extreme joint pain?
