Ok. I went to visit my mom for the weekend then I started to feel weird. My head would always feel light and I would feel tingly and ichy all over my head. My ears keep clogging up and every noise even really low noises hurt my ears. People say it is a Sinus Infection but I do not think so. What is Wrong with me. Is it safe to go to school?

Most likely a reaction to your unfamiliar environment. Could be in response to an animal, cleaning supplies, your mom's new perfume even. The sheets you slept in could have been washed in a detergent or fabric softner irritating to you. Your head and sinuses were in contact with them while you slept.
Antibiotics WILL NOT help this problem. They are used for killing the bacteria that tend to grow in the dormant liquid that is clogging your inner ears and sinuses, but leave the liquid. Find the source.

I had the same problem and I did use the Neti pot twice a day with warm salt water. My Dr. gave me antibiotics for 4 weeks and also added a 6 day pill treatment of steroids. I also took a lot of hot baths and put the hot wash cloth on my face. Sat in bathroom next to the shower a few times a day with hot water going in shower for steam. My Dr. said NOT to take any Sudafed or pills like that because it can close the passage (make it worse) and not allow the mucus to drain. Also they gave me a script spray for my nose called Fluticasone Propionate. This is not like over the counter nose spray-Don't use those either as they only make it worse. Try the Neti Pot and lots of steam to help drain the passages. Drinks lots of water to thin out the mucus. Wish you the best...I know how it feels having a sinus problem. When you do get rid of this, keep using that Neti Pot once a day to clean out your sinus.

Go to a doctor. I have had numerous sinus infections (I get about one a year...) and the symptoms you describe may describe a sinus infection, or something more severe.
In particular the pain and the itchy issue - I have suffered some pain from noises, but never felt itchy all over my head.
A doctor can provide a correct diagnosis - and if its a simple sinus infection you are fine to go to school.
Better safe than sorry as they say.

Go to a clinic and have it checked out and get antibiotics. A sinus infection generally won't go away without antibiotics. It can lead to a strep throat because that's where the infection drains. A strep throat, if untreated, can give you some se4rious heart problems.

Sinus Infections are really painful. If it is one it can only go away with antibiotics. You need to go to the doctor.

it sounds like an alergy caused by soemthing from your moms. maybe the trees, or plants, or carpet.
It's best tosee a doctor, and know for sure before taking a lot of useless medicines
