Many people are affected by sinus headaches.
Especially in Central Texas where there are big changes in
barometric pressure, temperature, and humidity over short time intervals.
This pressure headache occurs because the sinus cavities
that surround the eyes have narrow outflow tracks. With a little allergy
swelling that outflow track can be blocked.
When the sinus cavity cannot ventilate and equilibrate with
the nose it will have a build up of pressure. This pressure can cause headache,
visual changes, congestion, and can start migraines.
Allergy medicines such as antihistamines, decongestants, and
allergy nasal sprays can be effective for many patients to relieve these
complaints. (For more information, click here)
Surgical therapy was the next
step in the past if medical therapy failed. Fortunately gentle sinus balloon dilation can now be performed as a simple office procedure. This can relieve
these complaints permanently and allow patients to avoid all of the constant
medicines.
