I WAS HAVING SEVERE EYE PAIN SINCE MARCH. I WENT TO DIFFERENT EYE SPECIALIST AND NO ONE SEEMS TO FIND A PROBLEM. FINALLY AFTER CHANGING EYE SPECIALIST I FOUND AN EYE SPECIALIST THAT TOLD ME AN HAD AN EYE INFECTION - ETHMODITIS. I AM TAKING MEDICATION FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS NOW BUT MY EYE STILL PAINS (BUT NOT LIKE BEFORE). THE PAIN IS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE AND FRASTRATING. ALSO STRINGY COLD WOULD COME OUT FROM MY EYES.  CAN ANYONE TELL ME WHEN THE PAIN WOULD STOP. I TOLD ALL SORT OF DIFFERENT MEDICATION FOR THIS SUCH AS ANTIBIOTICS TO KILL THE BACTERIA, AMOXIL, REPICLAV, CLARITINE, ZYRTEC, VITAMINS SUCH AS B. CO, EYELITE, NORDIC. MY EAR AND NOSE FEEL NORMAL, I DON'T HAVE ANY ORDINARY COLD. THE PROBLEM IS ONLY WITH MY EYES.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Ethmoiditis is an infection of the ethmoid sinuses. These, one on each side, form part of the wall between the eye socket and the nasal passage. If there is collection of pus or fluid in these sinuses, it will need to be drained surgically. Antibiotics and decongestants are given if there is only inflammation
Please discuss with an ENT specialist. Take care!
