Sounds like a recurring migraine headache with allergies.  This would account for the swelling.  Do you sleep on the right side at night?  If so, all of the sinus drainage could be accumulating in that sinus cavity.  Use a cool mist humidifier at night, take some kind of antihistamine medication (like Benadryl, Comtrex, Tylenol Allergy-Sinus, etc.), and use Vick's vapor rub on a cloth near your nose.  The Vick's will help decongest your nose and allow you to breath better.  You could also be having an ear infection.  If this continues, you will need to go to the doctor and get on an antibiotic for sinus infection.

There are no exceptions!!!!!!!!!! You need to go to the nearest emergency room IMMEDIATELY!!!! You could be having heart failure, and facial numbness suggest the possibility of a stroke. WOULD YOU RATHER DIE AT 28 OR GO TO A FREAKIN DOCTOR? And..... I'm a Christian, too, but Jesus did not say to not seek medical attention! Pray and believe, but go, NOW! LOG OFF NOW, AND GET TO A HOSPITAL!

The blood does rush to my head and even though i have been here for all 16 years of my life it does get uncomfortable sometimes (or that could just be a migrane). I did try to aleviate this pain a little while back and lied down with my head pointing up, but all the blood went away from my head and I blacked out. I have since decided to keep the blood in my head so that inconveniences like that don't happen again.

A friend of mine told me to put ice in a wash cloth and fold it up and hold it against your neck and lay down for 30 minutes...it's supposed to open up your blood vessels..maybe you should get a MRI or a CT scan to have your headaches checked out. or trying having someone give you a back/neck message to relieve the tension?

I would call your sinus Doctor, usually an ear, nose and throat Doctor and get some X-rays done. Sounds like you may have damaged the cartilage in one of those incidents. I broke my nose once and had to have surgery. When I broke it, there was no blood, so this might be the answer. Good Luck!

Depends on what's causing the headache.  Try massage, meditation (including running, tai chi, meditation, yoga, or anything that requires your attention but not your intense concentration) sleep or food (avoide caffeine because it constricts the blood vessels and make it so you can't sleep).  If that doesn't work, the cause may be biochemical... see your doc.

Sounds like a neck problem or a TOS (thoracic outlet syndrome).  In other words, the nerves and blood vessels to your hands come out of your neck, run through your arm pit and down your arms.  Either bad posture or some type of physiological problem is pinching the nerves and/or blood vessels causing a numbing/burning sensation.  It probably feels close to like if your hand falls asleep.  I would recommend getting an examination from a Chiropractor.  Find one that not only adjusts but works with physical therapy to address muscular problems as well.  You should see someone as soon as possible about this becuase it will likely get worse and could lead to or further existing arthritis or disc problems in your neck.  Of course, it could always be something more serious so check with a healthcare professional (I definately recommend Chiropractic, and yes, I am biased but I know I am right too...)

I am curious to your age and menstrual cycle. I started getting migraine headaches at the age of 13. They came every month, with in an hour of the onset of my period. The older I got, the longer the headaches have lasted. The only time in my life that I havn't suffered from migraines, is during my pregnancies. The only other kind of headache that I know of that lasts that long, would possibly be a stress headache, or a sinus headache. A sinus headache can be as painful as a migraine. Depending on your location, and what the weather is like, could make the length of a sinus headache vary. Regaurdless of what kind of headache you have, I really think you need to see a Dr. and rule out the possibility of something more severe going on. If you do this, it might rule out a future stress headache!!! Good Luck to you, I hope you feel better. (Try a gentle massage of the neck and shoulders, and when they are nice & relaxed, work on the temples)

Whether you will go blind or not isn't the biggest issue here. The issue here is whether your intracranial pressure is under control. Are you taking antihypertensive medications at all? And what did the doctor who diagnosed you say about your treatment? The fact that you're still suffering from bad headache is a good enough indication that the pressure isn't under control yet. If you visit the ER with your headache, you should let the medical staff there know about your intracranial hypertension, and they'll do what is best for you.\nIn any case, try and make contact with your local social work service to arrange for some financial help so you can continue your treatment. Remember that intracranial hypertension can lead to more serious consequences than merely going blind. You're putting your brain's blood vessels in constant strain, and sooner or later, they'll become weaken, and you can suffer a stroke, which might be fatal. Please take care of your health. We all only live once.\nGood luck.

Never lean your head back as this will cause blood to pool into your sinus cavity. Get some ice and wrap it in a teatowel, or even use the old frozen vege packs and wrap it in a teatowel. Move your head gently forward, get tissues and hold your nose gently near the nostrils, then put ice pack over your nose. It may take up to 15 minutes to stop bleeding entirely, if not see your GP. Don't get up and move around to much for at least an hour afterwards or go near anything hot as it will dilate your little vessels that burst in there and you'll have a nose bleed all over again. Causes may be from hitting it, picking it, heat, change of temperature, medication or change in medication, season's changing, PMT. Well hope you get better soon.

Sinus specific or just a simple Upper Respiratory Infection (AKA "Cold")?  If you tap just below and above your eyes on the bony pominences, does it cause excruciating pain, what if you just apply a small amount of pressure to those same areas?  HAve you been suffering bloody noses?  How are your ears?  Pain in your teeth?  If you take simple over the counter cold medications, does it help?  If you have pain, frequent bloody noses and cold med.s just don't seem to help.  If you have fever chills and or night sweats, you should consider seeking professional medical help.  I'd send you my bill, but I'm retired.

no.  this is not okay.  it sounds like you are having some issues with your heart conduction (the natural electrical impulses that control when your heart beats), and as a result your heart is not getting enough oxygen (causing pain).  your blood pressure is likely reacting to that which could be causing the headaches.  i would definitely see your primary care doctor and he/she might suggest that you see a cardiologist.

Dear,I am also a sufferer from headaches and migaine.My strong advice find a really good neurologist to find the proper solution,by examining you scrupulously and to administer to you some really workable medication.As you share your experience I don't think your doctor give you the right "help"..As to your feeling of hearing some ringing in your ear it is a sign that you can have problems with your vestibular system..and that is cured with other medications..LUck and God bless you!!

Rest your fingers, hand, and wrist. Stop activities that you suspect are causing numbness and pain. \nIce your wrist for 10 to 15 minutes at a time, as often as once or twice an hour, and take nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to relieve pain and reduce swelling. They may help you to relieve symptoms. \nWear a wrist splint at night to keep your wrist in a neutral position and relieve pressure on your median nerve. See an illustration of a wrist splint. \nAlso, do simple range-of-motion exercises with your fingers and wrist to prevent stiffening. Stop if you have pain or numbness. \nGood luck.
