[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Same.  It's definitely in my sinuses and ears.   For me, caffeine seems to help the most but doesn't fix it 100%, pain meds don't help much.  If anyone has a remedy that's really helped, please share it![/quote]

When I was young, my dad often got “sinus headaches,” which he’d treat with a combination of Sudafed and Tylenol. (I put that in quotation marks because my migraine doctor says there’s no such thing as a “sinus headache” and pain in the sinus area is just a different kind of migraine.) I have the same type of headache, especially when it rains, and often took Sudafed up till I was diagnosed with migraines and started actual migraine treatments.

It always seemed like the Sudafed helped at least a little. From what PP said on page one about blood vessels expanding, it seems possible that Sudafed’s effect on tightening blood vessels could help. It’s certainly easy enough to give it a shot, PP! You have to get the real stuff from the pharmacy counter, though, the other decongestant they sell on the regular shelves is worthless. [/quote]
