Is Your Headache Really Because of Sinus? | The Truth About Headaches | ENT Surgeon Explains

Headache is one of the most common problems people experience, but is it really always caused by sinus? Most people with headaches blame their sinuses, but stress, migraine, lack of sleep, and anxiety are far more common causes. Sinus X-rays are outdated. A proper evaluation requires history, ENT examination, and nasal endoscopy. Only if sinusitis is actually suspected should a CT scan be done. Don't start unnecessary treatment based on old imaging. Stress-related headaches and migraines are far more common than sinus problems. Get properly evaluated before assuming it's sinus disease.
