Question about my sinuses
Question:
Hi Byron…. I, too, get that thick clear material, that I usually cough up. …Jon
Response:
Are you drinking enuf water and hydrating your sinuses? Mucolyptics can thin the mucous, but too much bothered by digestion. How about the saline irrigation?

The very thick mucus in the back of the throat often indicates that the mucus is stagnant and not moving. See the FAQ’s here re irrigation. Murray Grossan, M.D. http://www.ent-consult.com http://www.TinnitusRelief.net http://www.emedicine.com/ent/topic516.htm

Another question – I sometimes get really really thick glue like clear mucus in my throat, kind of like wallpaper paste…can this be sinus related? — Byron Hinson Designer Dream: http://www.designerdream.co.uk

Absolutely – it probably is from thickened sinuses linings.

Over the last few days I have been starting to feel quite run down (run down to the point of having to pack up work and sleep for a while yesterday)…my nose feels really blocked just above where the eyes meet. The thing is, although I feel blocked up and have a slight headache basically on the top of my head (feels kind of like a warm headache? not sure if this happens to any other sinus sufferers?) I was just wondering, do I have to be producing snot if I have a bad sinus bout? I am asking because I am someone who can get worked up over the slightest hint of feeling unwell…right now I have aching muscles and joint pain which I have had before with sinusitis but again I never hear people mention it with their symptoms. So is it likely to be sinusitis? if so I’ll gladly shut up moaning! — Byron Hinson ActiveWin: Windows News Site: http://www.activewin.com Designer Dream: http://www.designerdream.co.uk

Hi Byron.. For years I was blaming aspects of my health problems to everything except the real culprit….. My sinuses. I was never one to suffer from the post nasal drips, nor blowing out copious amounts of coloured mucus. My big indicators was an ongoing headache, chills, fatigue, and everyone asking me if I had a cold — which I haven’t had for 6 years. It wasn’t until I started irrigating that I realized what was really behind all my problems. I’m no Doctor, but your symptoms sure sound like a sinus problem to me. ..I would suggest a Cat scan. …Jon

In that area, yes, hat would be the frontal or ethmoid sinuses. That is quite a common area for sinus sympyoms. >The thing is, although I feel blocked up and have a slight headache >basically on the top of my head (feels kind of like a warm headache? not >sure if this happens to any other sinus sufferers?)

No it may be blocked. >I am asking because I am someone who can get worked up over the slightest >hint of feeling unwell…right now I have aching muscles and joint pain >which I have had before with sinusitis but again I never hear people mention >it with their symptoms. >So is it likely to be sinusitis?
I think so. Please try to see an ENT.
