Hi,
I had the FESS operation for the second time last year. Since then I have severe pain in the scalp in the area where the front hairline starts. I am taking Lyrica since then. It is not helping. On the CT polyps are back, but the pain started right after the operation. What could be the cause of this pain be? What kind of medicines may help? My head feels very heavy and not the frontal sinus itself. I cannot concentrate at all.
Thanks.
Julie

Hi
Thanks for writing to the forum!
Like any surgery FESS surgery too has its benefits and complications. It has brought back your sense of smell, relieved you of sinusitis and nasal blockage. However this surgery at times affects a part of the brain closest to the sinus on which surgery was done. In your case the frontal lobe may have got affected. Hence when you are emotional, headache starts. However this is treatable with medicines. Talk to your surgeon and physician about it. Do not worry. It is a minor complication in face of the success you achieved through surgery.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
