What Could Headache Like Sinus Pressure Around Eyes?
I have been experiencing a headache for the past week with little relief. On Thursday my jaw/ear began hurting. The headache felt like sinus pressure around my eyes and temples, as well as the top of my head feeling like it would explode. I went to the minute clinic and he gave me an antibiotic, but the more I think about this, the more I don t think it s a sinus infection. Today I noticed some slight swelling from the jaw pain.

I think that you have a sinus infection. A sinus is lined up with nasal epithelium and this can get inflamed because of some bacteria or virus.
Here are a few things that you can try to help you:
Inhale steam to help you clear the nasal passages
Drink lots of water to help
Take 1 tablet of Cetirizine daily for 3 days
Follow-up after 3 days. All the best.
Hope this helps you.
