Why Am I Having Pain Above My Right Eyebrow While Diving Into Water?
Hi, I have been having issues with this for the past few years. But it currently seems to be getting more common. Everytime I dive into the deep end of the pool, I get a throbbing pain above my right eyebrow. I swam today, and dove. And my eyebrow hurts even more now. Any idea why the water pressure is only affecting my right eyebrow, and nothing else? And also, how can I relieve the pain? Thanks!

Hello,
These problems are common with previous sinusitis (chronic sinusitis). As you dive there is an increase in the sinus pressure so you feel pain. It is necessary for you to get evaluated by an ENT Doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
