Answer 1

I could sit here and speculate (and others will too) but the only way to know for sure is to go to the doctor (this really works, doctors are not to be underestimated!)

Answer 2

It kind of sounds like a sinusitus....... there's still mucus up there and it hasn't drained.

If you bend over with your head about as low as your waist, and the pain gets worse, it's probably a sinus infection and you'll need to see your doctor for antibiotics

The mucus that is produced by the mucous membranes in your sinuses normally drains into your nose through small holes called ostia. The ostia can become blocked if the sinuses get inflamed. This can happen if your membranes are irritated by something you are allergic to, such as pollen, or if you have an infection.

Most bouts of acute sinusitis are caused by an infection such as a cold.

Sometimes if you use a hot wet washcloth (folded) across the area, it helps to liquify the mucus so that it drains - but if it still hurts, see your doctor

I hope you feel better soon.....

If it hurts to touch ur eyes & shake ur head then don't do those things LOL. NO really sounds like sinus pressure that could lead to infection. If not better in 2 more days go see doctor. If ur passing yellow or green mucus from nose or throat-that is definetly infection. As I always say don't wait to long as more problems can arise fast. Good luck-feel better, be safe xo Donna

Answer 4

I think your cold is making you sick but you need new glasses if you are still having head aches

Answer 5

I second what Kate said... sinusitis.
