Sinus ?

Sinus ?

Hi. I am hoping to get some help on this. I have had a sinus infection for the last 7 days. I started taking Amoxicillin 2 days ago. I have had some pressure be released but not much. I am still feeling HEAVY pressure in my right ear and the "i think its called" temperal bone under/next to right ear is a lil numb at times but numbness has somewhat gone away since I started the amoxicillin. Still very stuffy at times too.  Will I be feeling any pressure relief/stuffiness decrease or a COMPLETE stop of it any time soon. Please help and Thank You!

I have chronic sinusitis and have dealt with many sinus infections. F or relief of stuffiness you can buy dristan nasal spray or and nasal decongestent but do not use for more than 5 days as your sinuses will become dependant on it. Also ibuprofen or Advil/Motrin will help decrease inflamation (inflammation). What you really need to know is that there is no direct blood flow to the sinuses so antibiotics must be taken for 10 days as opposed to the usual week so hang in there,  the nasal spray should do wonders with the Advil. Hope this helps!
