Hi
Thanks for asking
Based on your query my opinion is
1. Sinus infection and the tingling sensation are not related.
2. Abdominal fullness or discomfort may be due to gastritis.
3. Tingling/ ticklilng sensation might be due to vitamin deficiency or just a local skin reaction.
4. If there is pain or mass in the rib cage or inability to move then its of concern. It needs to be evaluated.
5. Take multivitamin supplements along with antiinflammatory agents and antibiotics for sinus infection.
Hope this helps
Regards
