5. Sneezing
Sinusitis mimics a common cold, so sneezing is a common symptom. Most people don’t think much when they start to sneeze and just assume they are suffering from allergies or are having an allergic reaction to something nearby. If the sneezing gets worse, it can lead to other problems such as a sore throat, runny nose, and headache. There are plenty of medications that can help reduce the need to sneeze.
Sneezing can actually be a good thing because it helps push mucus through the sinuses and out of the body. The mucus doesn’t get a chance to build up in the sinuses and cause pressure and pain. Sneezing isn’t only a symptom of sinusitis; it can be a symptom of many other illnesses and health problems as well. If you are sneezing a lot, it’s a good idea to see a doctor for a proper diagnosis and to rule out a more serious health issue.
